Nick Olij was injured on Saturday in the first friendly match of his new club PSV. It is not yet clear how serious the injury is.
It went wrong for Olij after only seven minutes in the friendly match against Belgian champion Royale Union Saint-Gilloise. He sustained an injury during a save. After treatment, he limped off the field.
It has not yet been announced what kind of injury Olij sustained during his unofficial debut for PSV. The friendly match against Royale Union Saint-Gilloise is still in progress. Olij was replaced by Niek Schiks. After twenty minutes the score was still 0-0.
PSV picked up the 29-year-old Olij from Sparta Rotterdam this summer to replace goalkeeper Walter BenÃtez, who left for Crystal Palace. The Eindhoven team reportedly paid a transfer fee of 3 million euros.
It probably won’t stop there for PSV. According to various German media, the club is close to reaching an agreement with Bayer Leverkusen for the arrival of Matej Kovar. PSV is said to be paying 5 million euros for the Czech international. The clubs have not yet announced this.
