United States men's national team defender Sergiño Dest is set to make his return for PSV Eindhoven on Saturday after an 11-month injury layoff.

PSV coach Peter Bosz said Friday that he was expecting to include Dest in the squad that takes on Heerenveen in the Dutch Eredivisie.

"If all goes well, Sergiño Dest will be in the matchday squad tomorrow. I'm very happy about that," he told a news conference.

Dest, 24, suffered a torn ACL while training with PSV on April 20 last year. At the time, the former Ajax player was on a season-long loan from Barcelona, but, despite the injury, PSV made the move permanent, signing Dest to a contact through 2028 last June.

His return will come as a welcome boost for PSV. After winning the Dutch title last season, they currently sit in second place, eight points behind leaders Ajax. Bosz's side are also coming off the back of an emphatic 7-1 home defeat to Arsenal in the first leg of their Champions League round-of-16 tie on Tuesday.

Dest has 33 caps for the USMNT but has been unavailable for selection since Mauricio Pochettino took over as coach last September. Pochettino is set to name his roster for the Concacaf Nations League finals on Tuesday. The U.S. will face Panama in the semifinals on March 20.
