Dest, Tillman and Pepi: The American trio who are league champions at PSV
New York TimesThis article was originally published in February 2024 and has been updated after PSV won the Eredivisie with two games remaining on May 5, having lost just once in 32 games. “That’s what makes this club so special; you can have normal conversations with people and they’re upfront, even if sometimes you don’t like to hear some things,” Dest says. “So in Spanish it was, ‘El tren’.” Tillman has also been talked up a lot since joining Bayern in 2015 along with his brother Timothy. “We’re winning every weekend and want to be champions so we have got to keep each other on our toes,” says Pepi. “Every time I think about it I’m like, ‘It really happened’,” he says of receiving the call from Gregg Berhalter in which the coach explained he wasn’t taking him to the World Cup.
