PSV manager Peter Bosz is expected to have Malik Tillman back available for action this weekend.
Bosz confirmed that Tillman could feature in PSV’s return to Eredivisie play against Ajax on Sunday. The U.S. men’s national team midfielder returned to training earlier this month after being sidelined since early-February due to an ankle injury.
“Malik is ready and hungry, Bosz told reporters Friday. “Whether he starts on the bench or in the lineup, you’ll see on Sunday.”
Tillman has remained a consistent player for PSV this season, scoring 11 goals and adding six assists in 26 appearances.
The USMNT midfielder missed out on international duty this month due to his injury and lack of fitness.
PSV has certainly missed Tillman’s production after dropping out of the top spot in the Eredivisie table.
A victory on Sunday would trim PSV’s deficit to three points.
