Stoke midfielder Sidibe joins Dutch champions PSV

Sol Sidibe made 13 appearances for Stoke City last season

Stoke City midfielder Sol Sidibe has signed for Dutch club PSV Eindhoven for an undisclosed fee.

The 18-year-old has agreed a four-year contract at the current Eredivisie champions after coming through the Potters' academy.

Sidibe made 21 appearances for Stoke, making his debut as a 16-year-old on the opening day of the 2023-24 season.

Stoke sporting director Jonathan Walters told the club website: "After open and honest conversations, this was an opportunity Sol wanted to pursue. Therefore, we came to an agreement with PSV that reflects not just the player Sol is now, but the potential he has for the future."

He added: "Sol has grown up at this club. We've shared some brilliant moments with him and his family, and that bond will always be there. He'll always be welcome back at Stoke City."

Sidibe is the son of former City favourite Mamady Sidibe and last played for the Potters in January in an FA Cup tie against Sunderland.
