Reds let Kromkamp return to Holland
Liverpool have allowed defender Jan Kromkamp to join PSV Eindhoven for an undisclosed fee after he agreed a five-year deal with the club.
The full-back, who can also play in midfield, was signed from Villarreal in January but failed to make a first-team place his own at Anfield.
He was, however, used as a substitute in the FA Cup final and helped Liverpool to their victory over West Ham on penalties.
He made 18 first-team appearances for Rafael Benitez's side and was a member of Holland's World Cup squad.
Kromkamp, 26, had joined Villarreal from AZ Alkmaar in 2005 but failed to settle in Spain.
He joins PSV on the same day as the Dutch club signed former Newcastle and Barcelona striker Patrick Kluivert following his release from Valencia.
