Borussia Dortmund have completed the signing of midfielder Joey Veerman from PSV Eindhoven.
The Netherlands international has joined on a contract until 2031, with Dortmund paying a reported €22million for his services after activating his release clause.
Veerman has scored 25 goals and provided 58 assists in six seasons with PSV, winning three Eredivisie titles and two KNVB Cups in his time at the Philips Stadion.
Now the 27-year-old is targeting further glory with Dortmund after becoming their sixth signing of the transfer window.
“Borussia Dortmund is a major club in Europe, and I’m proud to now be a part of it. I’m thrilled to be here and look forward to celebrating successes together with BVB,” Veerman told the club’s official website.
Dortmund’s managing director of sports, Lars Ricken, said of Veerman: “Joey is a player whose skills will be of enormous help to us.
“We have deliberately focused our transfer activities this summer on central midfield, because with Pascal Gross and Salih Ozcan, we’ve lost two players there since the start of the year—and we plan to use Emre Can in central defense once he returns to the team.”
Veerman could make his debut on Saturday when Dortmund face Bayern Munich in the DFL-Supercup. They kick off their Bundesliga campaign seven days later at home to Hamburg.
