Joey Veerman talks PSV and potential transfer to Besiktas

“No one likes to sit on the couch,” says Veerman in conversation with Football International. “The trainer explained to me why he made this decision and I have to deal with that. It took a few matches. I was grumpy for a while. But I trained full throttle, because I like playing football too much. Even if I wanted to, I can no longer hang my head, haha. Fortunately, that has changed for me. “

The moment Veerman sat on the bench, it became known that Besiktas wanted to recruit him. “In the end they did report, but it is not the step I would like to take after PSV”, the Volenda player is honest. “Fortunately I was quickly back in the starting line-up. Not that I started doing much differently, mind you. After the World Cup I started strength training and I continued that when I was on the bench. Perhaps that was the change that was needed.”
