PSV have no intention of selling Ricardo Pepi to Fulham | OneFootball

Voetbal International are reporting that PSV have no intention of allowing Ricardo Pepi to join Fulham in January. The Eredivisie side has already rejected an offer from Fulham for Pepi and are expecting to have a quiet transfer window. The club are on course for another Eredivisie title and have turned things around in the Champions League after a slow start. Pepi himself has played 21 games this season and scored 10 goals.

It is quite a statement from PSV to reject an offer from Fulham for Pepi that was said to be in the region of €35m. The Premier League side have not returned with a second bid for Pepi yet as they clearly realise that it will cost them well beyond what they are willing to spend or, more likely, value the services of the American striker at.

The 22-year-old Pepi will hope to play a key role for one of the hosts of the 2026 World Cup this summer. Pepi left FC Dallas in 2022 to join Augsburg in Germany. He only played 16 games for the Bundesliga side, failing to score. After 13 goals in 31 games for FC Groningen on loan he joined PSV in 2023. Since then, Pepi has gone on to score 36 goals in 89 games for the Eindhoven based side.
