Sergino Dest has been one of PSV’s best performers during the 2023-24 season but he will now miss the remainder of the Eredivisie schedule.
Dest suffered a serious knee injury in PSV training, the Dutch club announced Sunday. The U.S. men’s national team full back later announced on his Instagram that he will miss the remainder of the club season.
Dest joined PSV last fall on a season-long loan and has excelled for Peter Bosz’s squad. The 23-year-old has been a regular for the Eredivisie leaders this season, scoring two goals and adding seven assists in 37 combined appearances.
He helped PSV advance out of the UEFA Champions League group stage and also claim a current nine point lead at the top of the league table. PSV has four league matches remaining on its schedule this season and could clinch the title when it returns to action on Thursday at Heerenveen.
Dest has remained a key starter for the USMNT since Gregg Berhalter’s return as head coach. Despite missing the CONCACAF Nations League semifinal victory over Jamaica, Dest returned in the final to help the Americans defeat Mexico 2-0 to reclaim the trophy.
However, his recent injury could force him out of Copa America action this summer on home soil.
No right back and mediocre wing depth has me worried for the copa. 532 may be in our future.0
I think Weah has played right back for Juve this season, but is more commonly a right wingback with 3 in back.
Really big blow for us going into a crucial summer! Scally will have to step it up big time, because he’s looked 2nd rate internationally if we’re being honest. The question is who comes in to provide cover, or shall I say to push Scally, and I think its DeJuan Jones! Bryan Reynold’s no doubt will like his chances to be called in, and I wouldn’t bat an eye lash if he is, but I do think Dejan Jones has the edge bc of his number of senior team caps the last few years and he’s proven to be a solid, capable RB at this level
Yep, I agree Ronniet 👍
Not supposed to be serious but Jones is expected out for the next few weeks with a hamstring injury.
Well looks like Reynolds might be on the Copa team now not the Olympic team. Hope Dest has a good recovery. Weah could be moved to RB.
Sally gonna have to step up. He was lackluster in Germany friendly and Jamaica game. I am baffled that Scally struggles on national team.
SCALLY*
Crap.
That is all.
