PSV striker appears to be leaving: “Among others, ADO previously showed interest”
1 min readAfter winning their third consecutive league title, PSV can look ahead to the 2026/2027 season, where Peter Bosz's side will do everything possible to claim the fourth league championship in a row. During the pre-season, Bosz will also want to give a few talents a new opportunity.
PSV watcher Rik Elfrink from Eindhovens Dagblad thinks he knows which talents are hoping for a chance in PSV’s first team. ''With Jong PSV for next season, there are normally six forwards involved who would eagerly like more. Fabio Kluit, Manuel Bahaty, Sami Bouhoudane (striker), Amir Bouhamdi, Jairo Beerens and - if he extends his contract - Austyn Jones'', the journalist writes in the ED.
At the end of June, PSV begins preparations for the new season still without the World Cup players, as the World Cup will still be in full swing at that time. In addition, Bosz had previously also said in an interview with De Telegraaf that PSV’s World Cup players would be given three weeks off starting from the moment they were eliminated.
''These players are all coveting playing time in the first team and, starting from 29 June, need to prove themselves with either PSV 1 or Jong PSV'', Elfrink continues, further discussing the aforementioned talents.
Someone who no longer needs to count on a new chance from Peter Bosz seems to be forward Jesper Uneken, who was loaned to RKC Waalwijk last season and appears to be allowed to leave. ''Jesper Uneken (21) was still a striker at Jong PSV until last year and will not return there, because PSV will allow him to make a transfer. Among others, ADO had shown interest earlier'', concludes the PSV watcher.

Eens. Give Bouhamdi and Beerens a proper run in friendlies and early league matches, otherwise this whole "new chance" story is just talk. 🔥
So no WK gangers at the start, and three weeks free after they go out. That is fair, but it also means the first-team experiment starts late... hopefully Bosz still tests those attackers during pre-season 🚀⚽
Wie krijgt daar dan de meeste kansen in de spitspositie? 👀
Jesper Uneken leaving makes sense tbh. ADO interest before is a clue, and if he was allowed to transfer because he wont return to Jong PSV then PSV clearly sees his next step elsewhere.
"Deze spelers azen allemaal op speeltijd in het eerste team"... yeah but can they offer intensity in Bosz's pressing? Bouhoudane as a 9 is interesting, but it depends on service from midfield and wide areas.
Fabio Kluit and Manuel Bahaty all hoping for PSV 1 time... honestly i love the ambition but i also fear they will stay as 'future options' again 😅. Especially with Bosz playing for results.
"Deze spelers azen allemaal op speeltijd" ja logisch, maar Bosz is ook niet gek. Als de concurrentie in PSV 1 direct hoog is, krijgen ze ofwel opbouwminuten, of het wordt vooral Jong PSV... en daar moet je het wél afmaken.
Echt jammer van Jesper Uneken denk ik... maar als hij mag vertrekken omdat hij niet terugkeert bij Jong PSV, dan snap ik het wel. Wel opvallend dat ADO eerder interesse had, dat voelt als een serieuze optie.
"Onder anderen ADO had eerder interesse" dus nu is het officieel een transferverhaal. imo zou PSV eerst moeten checken of iemand zoals Sami Bouhoudane of Austyn Jones het niveau al aankan, anders is het weer gokken met de selectie. 🔥
Jesper Uneken lijken mogen vertrekken door die ADO-interest vind ik wel logisch. Alleen zonde als we geen echte back-up voor de spitspositie klaar hebben staan, zeker met zo'n ambitie voor 2026/27.
Fabio Kluit en Bouhoudane die "dolgraag meer zouden willen" gaat echt spannend worden. Als Bosz ze pas vanaf 29 juni moet laten bewijzen, dan moeten ze wel meteen druk zetten in Jong PSV, anders blijft het hangen.
If Bosz vraiment gives June 29 a chance to those Jong PSV attackers, it has to be real minutes, not 5 cameo sub appearances. Jong PSV has options up front, but PSV 1 needs goals now.
als bosz zegt "vanaf 29 juni zien te bewijzen", dan moet je ook meteen rendement pakken. benieuwd wie van die jonge spitsen echt verschil kan maken, want anders schuift het weer door.
