Posted April 24, 200817 yr I haven't heard anything about these two but it seems like they're getting regular playing time at PSV. Has anyone heard/know anything about them? Here's the Soccernet article I saw http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=528655&cc=5901
April 24, 200817 yr alcides has been their a while, doubt we will ever bring him to the club. rajkovic is a younger player and looks a very good prospect. watched him play in an under 21`s tournament and looked excellent.
April 24, 200817 yr 23 is not all very old. I haven't Alcides play, though. I wonder if Rajkovic played many matches this season...
April 25, 200817 yr Rajkovic Club careerBeginning his career with OFK Belgrade, Rajkovi? soon gained a reputation as an extremely talented youngster. His reputation was such that in November 2005, when he was aged just sixteen, English club Chelsea F.C. agreed to a €5.2m euro(3.8m GBP) deal for the centre-half; a world record at the time for a player under eighteen years of age. Under the terms of the deal, Rajkovi? will stay at OFK Belgrade on loan from Chelsea until the end of the 2006-07 Serbian Superliga season. Chelsea will loan Rajkovi? to PSV Eindhoven during the 2007-08 season, as part of the deal surrounding Alex Rodrigo Dias da Costa's move to Chelsea.

He was the youngest player ever to appear in a qualifying match of the UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship.[2] Alcides Alcides Eduardo Mendes de Araújo Alves, best known as Alcides (born in São José do Rio Preto, São Paulo State, March 13, 1985) is a Brazilian footballer who currently plays for PSV Eindhoven on loan from Chelsea F.C. and has played with many clubs in Brazil.
