Lutsharel Geertruida, born on 18 July 2000 (age 26), is a Dutch central defender now with PSV, where he wears number 2. His current market value is around £27m, according to Transfermarkt.
His career is still shaped most clearly by Feyenoord. Whatever value came from his earlier development and any loan football around the edges, it was in Rotterdam that he became a serious first-team player. Across seven seasons with Feyenoord, he made 144 league appearances and scored 19 league goals – a strong return for a defender without needing to pretend he was a forward in disguise.
The 2023-24 season was his most productive in front of goal, with eight goals in 34 league appearances for Feyenoord. That gives a fair sense of his role there: primarily a centre-back, but one with enough timing and presence to matter at the other end as well.
Geertruida is now at PSV and has made one Eredivisie appearance in 2026-27. He has also remained involved with the Netherlands, making three appearances in European World Cup qualifying this season.
At this stage, his story is straightforward enough: a Dutch defender whose best and most substantial work came over a long Feyenoord spell, now continuing his career at PSV while staying in the international picture.
