Squad

Amsterdam, Sept. 3, 2020 Netherlands defender Stefan de Vrij has withdrawn injured from their UEFA Nations League matches against Poland on Friday and Italy on Monday, the Dutch football association said on Thursday.

No details were given of the injury, but it leaves the Dutch thin in defence with Juventus’ Matthijs de Ligt also absent following shoulder surgery last month.

The 28-year-old De Vrij helped Inter Milan reach the UEFA Europa League final last month.

No replacement will be called up for De Vrij, the association added, reducing the squad to 23 players for the two matches.
