OFFICIAL: PSV sign Sergino Dest from Barcelona
Barcelona have confirmed that Sergino Dest has signed for PSV on a permanent basis following a season-long loan with the Eredivisie side.
Dest enjoyed a good campaign in the Netherlands but then picked up a serious knee injury that required surgery and is expected to rule him out until 2025.
The injury meant that PSV did not take up the purchase option in Dest’s loan deal but the club have now decided to sign him from Barca.
“FC Barcelona and PSV Eindhoven have reached an agreement for the transfer of the player Sergiño Dest. FC Barcelona retains a percentage of any future sale,” read a club statement.
Dest spoke of his delight in making the move after the deal had been announced.
“First of all, PSV believes in me and I am greatly appreciated here.I got to know the club and it is incredibly warm, like I have never experienced anywhere before,” he said.
“Those are important aspects for someone in my situation and give me confidence that I can rehabilitate well here. I’m really looking forward to getting minutes again, being important and winning more titles.”
Good luck at PSV, Sergino Dest.
