Eindhoven (ANP) – Footballer Smee Brooks has left PSV. According to PSV, the 19-year-old attacker is choosing “a new step in his career”. Bruchts became a constant value in the national team as a left-back under national coach Andries Jonger.

The South Hollander made 75 appearances for PSV in three years. According to the Eindhoven club, Brugts has indicated his desire to leave. It is not yet known which club he will play football for. Next summer, Brooks will play with the Orange at the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

PSV could not intervene again in the battle for the title in the Women’s Eredivisie this season. The Brabant footballers finished fourth. PSV can win the KNVB Cup on Ascension Day (next Thursday). Coach Rick de Rooij’s side will compete against FC Dwente in the final in The Hague.

A few days later, PSV plays against Dutch champions Ajax in the Eredivisie Cup match. Then, the club bids farewell to players who leave or retire. Apart from Bruchts, these include Giga van Es, Mandy van den Berg and ‘Miss PSV’ Jesleen Kuijpers, who has played for PSV since the establishment of the Brabant women’s team in 2012. Kuypers played 255 times for the club.
