http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/PSV-c40281 Eindhoven’s Erik Pieters on Newcastle United radar – Dutch Eredivisie news
Reports from Dutch and English media indicate that Newcastle United are interested in signing PSV Eindhoven’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809
FC before the end of the summer transfer window and the club management see Pieters as an ideal replacement.
The Dutch International arrived at Philips Stadion in the summer of 2008 after making 51 appearances for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Utrecht-c39237. The 23-year-old has so far represented the Boeren in 76 matches. The left-back performed impressively in the season ended and his performances
were enough to attract interest from Newcastle.
Tim Krul, the Magpies goalkeeper, confirmed that his side is interested in acquiring the left-back’s services.
“We are interested. Our current left-back Enrique has a contract that expires, however, he won't sign. In addition, many clubs are interested in him”, Krul said.
On the other hand, the Boeren manager http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fred-c14136 Rutten has clearly indicated that he will not let go of Pieters in the ongoing summer transfer market. Furthermore, he revealed that Wilfred Bouma has also attracted interest from a host of European clubs, but the
Dutch trainer has clearly expressed that he does not intend to lose Bouma as well.
“I have talked with Bouma. And I can say that it is resolved. I clearly stated him that he cannot leave. I can say the same for Pieters”, Rutten was quoted as saying to the media.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcel-c23507 Brands, the technical manager, disclosed that his side has not received any official offers from any interested clubs for Bouma.
“None of the interested clubs reported. And I do not want to respond to questions about any player who might make a move away. Of all the possible transfer rumours in newspapers, only few materializes”, Brands said while talking to the journalists.
The Boeren enhanced their midfield by signing http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kevin-Strootman-c20775 earlier in the ongoing summer transfer market. Should they manage to hold on to their current players until the end of the summer transfer window, their
chances to compete for the Eredivisie title would grow a lot brighter.
