Theo Lucius will play an important role in PSV’s youth academy. The 44-year-old former player must become the new trainer of PSV O17, report Football International and the Eindhovens Dagblad.
Lucius has to replace Vincent Heilmann, who will start working at VfL Wolfsburg in the wake of Mark van Bommel. The former defender-cum-midfielder has gained the necessary experience in the PSV youth academy in recent years, where he was an individual coach, among other things. The club now considers him ripe for the important position as a trainer of the O17.
Lucius himself has the necessary national and international experience as a player for PSV and Feyenoord. He played for the Eindhoven team between 1998 and 2006, with which he became national champion four times. He also reached the semi-finals of the Champions League with the club in 2005. Lucius became a crowd favorite during his time at PSV.
