PSV coach Peter Bosz confirmed that Morocco international Ismael Saibari is fit to play against FC Groningen on Sunday.

Saibari cleared after injury scare

PSV Eindhoven head coach Peter Bosz delivered good news for Moroccan fans and PSV supporters by confirming the availability of Ismael Saibari ahead of the Eredivisie match against FC Groningen.

Concerns had emerged after Saibari substituted early during Wednesday’s Dutch Cup win over SC Heerenveen which ended in 4-1 victory.

The decision was taken as precaution after the midfielder felt he was not fully fit.

Bosz confirmed on Thursday that Saibari has fully recovered and will travel with the squad to Groningen.

PSV chasing historic domestic season

PSV head into matchday 22 sitting comfortably at the top of the Eredivisie holding 17 point lead over Feyenoord.

The strong position has fueled hopes of historic domestic treble, with PSV showing impressive form across competitions this season.

Saibari’s return is boost for Bosz even though the team will be without Alassane Pléa, Ruben van Bommel and Ricardo Pepi, all sidelined through injury.
