PSV announces signing of Mexico midfielder Erick Gutierrez

Mexico midfielder Erick Gutierrez will join his international teammate and friend Hirving Lozano at PSV, the Dutch club announced Wednesday.

PSV has agreed to terms with both Liga MX club Pachuca and the player with Gutierrez set to join PSV on a five-year deal as long as he passes a medical.

The 23-year-old was a reported target for the Dutch side this summer, but the club filled the need it has for a central midfielder by signing New Zealand international Ryan Thomas from PEC Zwolle.

Thomas, however, suffered a knee injury during training last week that will sideline him for the rest of the year and potentially the entire season.
