Update regarding PSV’s interest in FC Twente: no contact between the clubs yet, but “possibly an option.”

PSV is being linked to FC Twente standout Mats Rots, although the rumors seem especially to be coming from the eastern part of the country. Some FC Twente watchers report that PSV has an interest in Mats Rots, but whether the rumors should be taken very seriously is something we doubt.

According to the Eindhoven Dagblad, the interest should not immediately be taken very seriously. The regional newspaper reports that PSV has still not held any talks with the twenty-year-old defender of the Tukkers about a possible transfer. The rumours about PSV’s interest in Rots mainly come from Enschede, but the Eindhoven Dagblad reports that, if there had been any discussions, first contact would have been made with Earnest Stewart, but that turns out not to be the case. 

Multiple sources confirm to Eindhovens Dagblad that there has been no contact between Rots and PSV. In the rumor mill, it was said that Peter Bosz and the FC Twente defender would have spoken with each other, but according to the newspaper that isn’t true. First, communication would have to come from Stewart, before a conversation with Peter Bosz could take place. The twenty-year-old experienced his breakthrough season at FC Twente and this season played 35 matches for the club, in which he started in all duels. His contract in Enschede runs until mid-2027 and, according to Transfermarkt, he has a market value of ten million euros. That amount can be described as on the high side.

At FC Twente, Rots is seen along with Ruud Nijstad as great talent, which means PSV may have to pull out its wallet to also secure the left full-back. It is also not the first time that Rots’s name has surfaced around PSV.
