Luuk de Jong seals PSV switch

Luuk de Jong has sealed his transfer to PSV Eindhoven from Borussia Monchengladbach.

- Agent: Defour keen on PSV move

The Netherlands striker, 23, has signed a five-year contract with the Eredivisie club, bringing to an end a disappointing two-year spell in Germany.

"I want to get back onto the pitch to show my qualities," he told PSV's official website. "The talks with PSV were very positive and I'm looking forward to playing here."

De Jong had joined Gladbach from FC Twente in 2012 but struggled to make an impact in the Bundesliga. He was allowed to join Newcastle on loan in January but was unable to score in 12 appearances.

Gladbach sporting director Max Eberl added on the Bundesliga club's site: "Eindhoven wanted to sign Luuk by all means, and we were able to reach an agreement for this transfer. We wish Luuk all the best for his future."
