What this jersey represents

The 2022-23 season was a pivotal one for PSV Eindhoven. Under the guidance of Ruud van Nistelrooy, who returned to the club as coach, the Rood-en-Witten rediscovered collective ambition and a clear playing identity. The club finished second in the Eredivisie behind Ajax — not the title, certainly, but with a level of play and momentum that foreshadowed the return to the top that would follow the next season. It was a time of solid reconstruction, regained confidence, and this jersey is a direct testament to that.

On the field, PSV could count on serious key players. Luuk de Jong was back in people's minds as a symbol of the club, even if a new generation was carrying the torch. Cody Gakpo, meanwhile, was the big star of that season — the Dutchman was in exceptional form, drawing all eyes, and he left the club in January 2023 for Liverpool at the height of his career. Éran Zahavi, Ibrahim Sangaré in midfield, Armando Obispo in defense — it was a solid, competitive group, and this season remains etched in the memory of Philips Stadion fans.

Moments etched in this jersey

The Cody Gakpo phenomenon
Before joining Liverpool in January 2023, Cody Gakpo absolutely exploded with PSV. He finished among the top scorers and assisters in the Dutch league and lit up the club's European nights. This jersey is from his last half-season in Eindhoven — a piece of modern Dutch football history.

Van Nistelrooy's return to the bench
Ruud van Nistelrooy, an absolute PSV icon as a player, took the reins of the first team for the first time in his coaching career. His first full season in the Eredivisie with this group was precisely 2022-23 — and this jersey bears the imprint of this new chapter for the club.

The Brainport Eindhoven sponsor: a strong choice
Brainport Eindhoven is not just any sponsor. It's the technology cluster that makes Eindhoven one of Europe's most innovative cities — ASML, Philips, DAF, the entire industrial ecosystem of the region. Seeing this name on PSV's jersey means understanding the club's deep roots in its territory. A detail that makes all the difference for a collector.

Authentic vs. Replica

A Player Issue jersey is fundamentally different from a mass-market replica. The cut is more fitted, the fabrics more technical, the finishes more refined — and most importantly, it's the version that players actually wear in training or matches. Puma uses materials on this version designed for athletic performance, not for fan comfort in the stands. The feel, the drape, the lightness — everything is different from the very first seconds.

This PSV Eindhoven home jersey 2022-23 in 9/10 condition confirms it: you have a copy that has lived without suffering. The Brainport Eindhoven sponsor is perfectly legible, the seams are impeccable, and the whole presents that light, authentic patina that distinguishes a jersey that has existed from an item fresh out of its factory packaging. This is exactly what true collectors look for.

Vintage Size Guide

Player Issue jerseys from this era are sized for professional athletes — meaning a fitted cut, not oversized. An L in Player Issue often corresponds to an M or M/L in current streetwear standards or modern replica jerseys. Don't rely solely on the label: pro cuts are designed to be worn tight on the body, without an undershirt layer.

Before confirming your order, measure your chest width (armpit to armpit, doubled) and compare it with the actual measurements of the jersey. If you want to wear it casually with a bit of ease, take one size up from what you usually wear. If you want to frame it or display it in your collection, there's no question — go for it.

Why you should have it in your collection

PSV Eindhoven remains one of the most successful and respected clubs in Dutch and European football. A Puma Player Issue jersey from the 2022-23 season — the Van Nistelrooy era, the Gakpo explosion — is as much a sporting document as a collector's item. Player Issue versions are produced in very limited quantities compared to replicas, they don't remain available on the secondary market for long, and finding a copy in 9/10 condition several seasons later is already a great achievement.

There aren't many in this condition. A 9/10 on a Player Issue that has genuinely been used in the professional circuit is rare. Most copies you come across have taken a beating, aggressive washes, damaged flocking. Here, you have a jersey that has everything to become a central piece of a serious collection — or to be worn proudly, knowing exactly what you're putting on your back.
