PSV switch for Kromkamp

Netherlands full-back Jan Kromkamp has joined PSV Eindhoven after failing to make an impact at Liverpool.
The 26-year-old made just eight starts for the Reds after moving to Anfield from Villarreal in January 2006 and is glad to be heading back to his home country.
After putting pen to paper on a five-year contract at the Philips Stadion, Kromkamp told PSV's official website: "I am delighted to be here. So much has happened abroad, but I have also learnt a lot. Some things were great, although not everything has gone according to plan.
"I'll never forget the FA Cup final and I am proud I have made appearances for Liverpool.
"But it's good to be here. PSV have a great reputation and I think I will fit in well. PSV will be playing Champions League football and have a strong squad. I am match-fit and I cannot wait to start."
Kromkamp will get the chance to show Liverpool what they might be missing when the Reds travel to Eindhoven for a Champions League group game on September 12.
