PSV Eindhoven GM Toon Gerbrands concedes they could lose sports director Marcel Brands to Everton.

For the moment, Brands is still to commit to joining the Premier League outfit. However, Gerbrands admits PSV could lose him this summer.

He told Voetbal International: "If Marcel decides to leave, that is firstly a serious loss for PSV. But also for me personally, because I worked very well with him for nine years.

"On the other hand, it is also a very big compliment for Marcel and PSV. He has a very good name abroad and he is without doubt the architect of the technical organisation, the scouting and the training of PSV.

"The structure he has made here is worth gold."
