PSV Eindhoven midfielder Joey Veerman can leave the club for a fixed transfer fee of 20 million euro under a temporary clause, but that option expires in the course of next week, according to reports from the Eindhovens Dagblad and the Algemeen Dagblad. Once the deadline passes, the Eredivisie club will regain full control over negotiations regarding the player’s future.
The 20 Million Euro Exit Clause and Next Week’s Deadline
The current release clause allows interested suitors to secure Veerman’s signature for 20 million euro. According to regional newspaper reports, the specific clause ceases to be valid in the course of next week, shifting the power dynamic firmly back to the Philips Stadion board.
If clubs want to trigger the fixed fee, they must act before the deadline arrives. Once the clause lapses, PSV no longer has a mandatory obligation to sell at that valuation, meaning the club can dictate higher demands or refuse offers outright.

Reports from German and Dutch outlets indicate that Borussia Dortmund has placed Veerman high on their summer wish list.
Analyst Marciano Vink stated on VoetbalPrimeur that PSV would have a serious problem on their hands if they lose their midfield metronome without adequate preparation.
