PSV Crowned Dutch Champions with Five Games to Spare: From Perisic to Man, the Key Players in the Victory


Eindhoven: On Easter Sunday, PSV were crowned Dutch champions, according to Goal.com. The Red and Whites won the Eredivisie with five matches to spare, for the 27th time in their history; their third consecutive title. The title was mathematically secured following the 0-0 draw between Feyenoord and Volendam, thanks to which the Eindhoven side moved 17 points clear of second place, who, with only 15 points left to play for, cannot catch the leaders: 71 for PSV, 54 for Feyenoord. Peter Bosz’s side are the earliest champions in the history of the Dutch league, breaking a record that had stood since 1978-a record previously held by PSV themselves.



According to Azerbaijan State News Agency, The victory was largely down to the goals scored by Ismael Saibari, PSV’s top scorer in the Eredivisie with 14 goals; the only player to have scored more in the league (so far) is Feyenoord’s Ayase Ueda. Among the key players in Bosz’s squad are two former Serie A players: former Inter Milan man Ivan Perisic, one of the squad’s best performers, and Denis Man, who joined from Parma in August 2025 for just under £9 million. The top assist provider is Joey Veerman, born in 1998, and keep an eye on Ricardo Pepi’s future, as he could be playing in the Premier League next season after already agreeing a deal with Fulham.
