Despite a wind chill of -3 degrees Celsius, no fewer than 15,000 fans braved the cold Friday morning to attend the first open training session of 2025. Under a clear blue sky, the A-selection worked through various drills and a game. At the end of the training, the players took the time to sign autographs.
Brand new recruit Esmir Bajraktarević, who is still waiting for his work permit, watched from the sidelines as his new teammates trained at the Philips Stadium for the first time this year. In addition to the selection players, Tay Abed and Madi Monamay of Young PSV were also present. Afterwards, the players took no less than 45 minutes to hand out as many autographs as possible.
The second half of the season starts on Saturday, Jan. 11, with a league match against AZ. There are still some tickets available.
