Softfootball can confirm that Joey Veerman is set to join Borussia Dortmund from PSV Eindhoven in a €21.5 million transfer, with the Dutch midfielder agreeing a five-year contract with the Bundesliga club.
The 27-year-old is scheduled to undergo his medical tomorrow before completing the remaining formalities of the move.
Veerman’s transfer is being completed through a release clause in his PSV contract, with the clause reportedly approaching its expiry. Dortmund moved quickly to secure the midfielder’s signature before the opportunity disappeared.
The move fits Dortmund’s recruitment strategy under head coach Niko Kovač, who has been looking for an experienced midfielder capable of contributing immediately.
With personal terms already agreed and the release clause activated, the medical represents the next major step before the transfer can be officially completed.
If all goes according to plan, Veerman will begin a new chapter in Germany after establishing himself as one of PSV’s most influential midfielders. Dortmund will hope his creativity and passing ability can help strengthen their push for major honours next season.
