Like Young, Sildillia is a player who can play as right back and as a judge central defender. Nevertheless, PSV has recently made it known to being interested in Young, although the interest is currently on the back burner. The 19-year-old Sparta defender is seen as a talented defender with a lot of growth potential.
Kiliann Sildillia Fifth Summer Increase for PSV
PSV and SC Freiburg reached an agreement on a transfer fee of 5.8 million euros for Sildillia on Sunday evening. The French defender is expected in the short term in Eindhoven for the medical examination, possibly Tuesday, and will connect to the PSV training camp in Germany as quickly as possible in the event of a positive outcome. Peter Bosz left for Marienfeld with his selection today for a one -week training camp.
Johan Bakayoko did not travel with a view to an upcoming transfer. PSV and RB Leipzig are in advanced negotiations over a transfer from the attacker.

High in the tree
Young took place last season from the youth of Sparta in the main force and the defender from Middelburg in Zeeland immediately grew into a fixed basic player. PSV reported for Young some time ago, reached agreement with the player on the personal conditions, but could not (yet) come out with Sparta. Technical director Gerard Nijkamp was high in the tree with an asking price of 7 million euros, while at that time PSV did not want to go further than a bid of 2.5 million euros plus 1 million euros in bonuses. Young’s contract with Sparta was broken open in January of this year and extended to mid -2029.
PSV’s interest in Young may be concretized later in this window, for example if there were developments around Adamo Nagalo or Armando Obispo. The latter in particular is expected that he could make a career step this summer. In that case, space would be released again to get a defender. A construction in which PSV Young takes over, but would have Sparta play for another year is also conceivable. Such a construction suggested the Eindhoven club earlier this summer with regard to Luciano Valente, but he eventually opted for a direct transition to Feyenoord.

Multiple defenders
In addition to Young, PSV has been associated with several defenders this transferwindow. About Real Betis defender Nobel Mendy, PSV even reached an agreement with the Spanish club on a transfer fee of 4 million euros, but his transition has stuck in the official mills when applying for a work permit. Earlier, the names of Ko Itakura (Borussia Mönchengladbach) and Adilson Malanda (Charlotte FC) also circulated as possible defensive reinforcements. PSV reinforced itself with Sildillia this summer with center defender Yarek Gasiorowski, who was taken over from Valencia for 9.5 million euros.
In addition, PSV attracted Nick Olij (taken over for 3 million euros from Sparta) and Matej Kovar (rented from Bayer Leverkusen with option to purchase). The transition from the Czech goalkeeper still has to be finally completed. The top purchase is so far that of Ruben van Bommel, who has been taken over from AZ for 15.8 million euros.
