“Upcoming PSV player medically cleared”

1 min read

PSV will strengthen itself toward the end of the transfer window with a number of new players. Sami Ouaissa will join from NEC, and it is also expected that Sam Lammers will sign with the club shortly.

In addition, midfield player Ayoni Santos is also being taken over from Sparta Rotterdam. Santos is currently in Eindhoven to undergo the medical examination.

That writes PSV watcher Rik Elfrink of Eindhovens Dagblad on the social media platform X. Last weekend, PSV reached an agreement with the club from Rotterdam-West regarding a transfer of the midfielder who can also play on the wings.

''At PSV, the medical examination of Ayoni Santos has now begun. Midfielder of Sparta, who can also play on the outside, registered this morning with medical partner TopSupport'', said Elfrink.

The transfer carousel seemed to be coming late into gear this summer at PSV. In early July, Sven Mijnans was taken over from AZ and then it seemed to stay quiet for a longer time in Eindhoven.

Over the past few weeks, change has taken place and, among others, Kodai Sano, Filip Kostić, and Lutsharel Geertruida (on a loan basis) have been brought to PSV. Over the coming days, more players will be presented.

Goal!! i swear the way they set up the cutbacks is exactly what makes PSV dangerous. Let X keep getting those chances, and this becomes a season statement. 💯🚀

Liam, you said it was about winning duels, but then the defending looked shaky near the box. We can be brave in possession, but the spacing has to be tighter. Otherwise its fun until its 2-1 against you.

"PSV are going to control the tempo." Yeah sure, until the first counter. Im just waiting for a midfield turnover that turns into a one-on-one. This team needs more ball security when they slow down.

"rotations are key" ... tbh they keep saying that but we still look a bit awkward in transition. If the midfield does not win the second ball, the whole shape collapses. 🤬

🔥 That chance creation looked like peak PSV. Cody Gakpo still has the movement to find pockets, and the timing with the runs is what makes it click. Still, we cant waste those first-time setups if we want the big wins.

Tbh im not convinced by the full-back positioning. The article mentions the build-up was more direct, but i saw the wide areas get isolated too easily. We need the winger to drop or the FB to stay narrower.

I get the idea behind the PSV build-up described, but im not convinced about the fullback staying so high. When the ball gets switched, that space in behind becomes too easy for the counter. 🙄

If PSV really went for that high press, i love it. But does it leave Xav Simons too exposed on transitions? Need that midfield to cover, otherwise itll get punished.

If PSV really went with that pressing trigger from the article, i love it. It forces the opponent into rushed passes and Gakpo can actually run at tired defenders. 🔥⚽
