Potential Major Transfers in the Eredivisie This January

omidbasir- Are we expecting major Eredivisie transfers this January, possibly involving tens of millions of euros? It seems likely, as Kenneth Taylor is permitted to leave Ajax, and Ricardo Pepi from PSV is drawing considerable interest.

There have been ongoing discussions regarding Ricardo Pepi, with reports suggesting a potential transfer from PSV to Fulham for around 40 million euros. This American striker has been on Fulham’s radar for some time, and the Premier League club has maintained interest since the previous season. The latest updates indicate that Fulham is preparing a formal offer in the range of 30 to 35 million euros. However, the question remains: can PSV accept this bid?

Returning to the initial question: Can Fulham afford Pepi? The answer is a resounding ‘yes.’ The Premier League club is owned by Shahid Khan, a Pakistani-American billionaire who also owns the NFL team Jacksonville Jaguars. Khan amassed his substantial wealth as the owner of the auto manufacturer Flex-N-Gate, with an estimated net worth of $6.8 billion. He ranks 65th on the Forbes 400 list of the richest Americans and is the 224th richest person globally.
