Darko Nejasmic has emerged as a name of interest among PSV supporters, with some fans suggesting that the NEC midfielder could be an ideal solution to Peter Bosz’s problems in central defence.

PSV captain Jerdy Schouten is expected to remain unavailable until the beginning of 2027, leaving Bosz without an important option at the back. Nejasmic was subsequently mentioned by supporters as a possible replacement, particularly because of his ability to combine composure in possession with defensive strength.
