Dennis Man Set for PSV Eindhoven Move as Clubs Near Agreement
Romanian winger Dennis Man is close to joining PSV Eindhoven. The Dutch club is working on a transfer deal with Parma worth around €8-10 million.
WHAT HAPPENED?
PSV Eindhoven and Parma are almost finalizing Dennis Man‘s transfer. The Dutch club wants to complete the deal soon, with just a few details remaining. Parma originally asked for €10 million, but it seems the final fee will be closer to €8 million. PSV needed a new winger after selling Noa Lang to Napoli and Johan Bakayoko to RB Leipzig, making Man their top target, as reported.
WHY PSV WANT DENNIS MAN
Dennis Man has been important for Parma since 2021, playing 142 matches with 28 goals and 17 assists. Last season in Serie A, he had four goals and five assists in 33 appearances. His pace and versatility make him appealing to PSV, who see him as Bakayoko’s replacement. PSV sold Lang and Bakayoko, using the funds to pursue Man; adding that he is currently under contract with Parma until 2027 and is worth about €10.9 million.
WHAT IT MEANS FOR BOTH TEAMS
PSV starts the Eredivisie season as champions, aiming to defend their title. Losing wingers Lang and Bakayoko left them needing new attacking options. Signing Man could provide the boost they need as they face Sparta Rotterdam. Parma, who finished in the middle of the table of the Serie A last season, will want to stay clear of a relegation to the Serie B. Man’s transfer gives them significant funds to reinvest for new goals and ambitions as the team tries to stay safe from relegationa nd eventually fight for European spots.
WHAT’S NEXT?
Final discussions should conclude soon, with Man likely to undergo a medical in the coming days. If the deal is completed in time, he could debut in PSV’s next Eredivisie match. PSV will focus on staying at the top of the Dutch league, while Parma faces a challenging Serie A campaign, now needing to replace a key attacker after also selling Bonny earlier in the transfer season to Inter Milan.
