De Jong brothers joins forces at PSV

Siem de Jong will play alongside his brother Luuk for the first time after agreeing a loan move to PSV.

Dutch champions PSV have agreed a season-long loan with Newcastle United for former Ajax attacking midfielder Siem de Jong.

De Jong joins his brother Luuk at the Philips Stadion for 2016-17 as PSV look to turn their domestic form into success in the Champions League.

During his two seasons in the Premier League De Jong was beset by injuries and made only 26 appearances for Newcastle – seven of them starts – scoring twice.

The 27-year-old is still recovering from a hamstring strain suffered in pre-season, but hopes to be match-fit soon.
