Borussia Dortmund have agreed a deal for Joey Veerman, with the PSV Eindhoven midfielder due for a medical tomorrow before the paperwork can be signed off. A five-year contract is lined up as Dortmund push to turn a fast-moving agreement into a completed transfer.
- Borussia Dortmund have agreed a €21.5m deal with PSV Eindhoven for Joey Veerman.
- Veerman is set for a medical tomorrow and is expected to sign a five-year contract.
- The midfielder remains a PSV player until the medical and registration process are completed.
Joey Veerman’s Move to Borussia Dortmund
Joey Veerman has given Dortmund plenty of reasons to move quickly after an excellent 2024/25 league campaign for PSV. In 30 Eredivisie matches, he registered eight goals and 14 assists – numbers that underline the creative output Dortmund will be adding to their squad if the deal gets over the line.
Veerman also featured for PSV in the Champions League, meaning this is not a move built solely on domestic promise.
Transfer Timing and the PSV Release Clause
Borussia Dortmund’s agreement for Veerman has taken shape incredibly quickly in the middle of August. As recently as 14 August, there had been no approach from Dortmund to the Eindhoven club, making the speed of the last two days stand out even more.
Veerman also had a separate €20m release clause in his PSV contract, which was expected to expire around 20 or 21 August. That provides context regarding the timing of the move, though it does not automatically explain the reported €21.5m agreement figure.
What Veerman Could Bring to Dortmund
Joey Veerman has already made it clear that Dortmund appeals to him. He previously described them as “a fantastic club” and said a move there would be “something I’ve been waiting for for years”.
For Dortmund, this is a chance to add a midfielder who has consistently mixed creativity with real end product at PSV. For Veerman, the move would represent a dream switch from the Eredivisie to the Bundesliga. If the remaining paperwork falls into place, this will become one of Dortmund’s late-window additions.
