USMNT rising star Malik Tillman has opened up about his future, acknowledging that decisions about his career lie beyond his control amid speculations of an imminent departure from Bayern Munich, reported by GOAL. Currently on loan at PSV Eindhoven in the Eredivisie, Tillman has been in outstanding form, contributing five goals and one assist in eight league matches.

The 21-year-old midfielder, a product of Bayern's youth system, faces the possibility of a permanent move to PSV, with the Dutch club reportedly holding a purchase option of around $13 million (£12m) that can be exercised at the end of the season. Tillman expressed his perspective on the situation, stating, “I don't know what happens after this season. That depends on PSV and Bayern. If PSV activates the purchase option, I don't think I have much to say about it.”

Despite the uncertainty, Tillman emphasized his positive experience at PSV, highlighting the favorable conditions that have contributed to his development. “I have really enjoyed my time at PSV from day one. It was the right move for me after Rangers FC. The trainer, the team, and the attacking style of play suit me,” he remarked.
