Wednesday, August 22, 2007
PSV Eindhoven are interested in a promising Malaysian teenager after seeing him in action during the Champions Youth Cup currently being held in the Asian nation.
Under-19 defender Mohd Asraruddin, who can play at left-back or in the middle of defence, has caught the eye of the Dutch powerhouse and has been offered a two-week training spell in the Netherlands.
“We saw player No. 3 (Asraruddin) play against us and the match before and we came away impressed,” PSV coach Peter Dekkers told The Star newspaper.
“We would like to take him to PSV for a few weeks and see more of him in action,” added the coach.
The youngster also impressed PSV scout Piet de Visser.
“He is a good captain and has a good left foot," said de Visser. “He is very strong, fast and has good passing skills. Many defenders just defend well but are unable to create moves, this boy can do both very well. We look forward to having him at PSV.”
Good luck kid. Make us proud!
