PSV Eindhoven's current head coach Roger Schmidt was followed by AC Milan in the previous summer, before ending up managing the Dutch giants as stated by Eredivisie club's CEO Toon Gerbrands according to Voetbal Primeur.
"The chance of getting him was tiny, I can tell you. We had to compete with the Premier League, with big clubs like AC Milan. We laid down our philosophy and explained what kind of a club we are. You know that you cannot win the battle for the money, but you can promote the way of working in PSV. I have seen that he does not choose for money, but for his feelings. He chooses an environment with people he can work with." clarified Gerbrands through Good Morning Eredivisie on ESPN.
