U.S. international Ricardo Pepi bagged in the 86th minute to give PSV a 2-1 win over AZ Alkmaar in his first start since suffering an arm injury in January. The striker smashed home from close range after a well-worked move to cap off a narrow win in PSV's procession to the Eredivisie crown. It was Pepi's 10th goal of the season.

USMNT star Ricardo Pepi continues to see a move to Fulham speculated on, having missed out on a switch to Craven Cottage during the winter transfer window of 2026.
