The Hindu  

Former Netherlands captain Georginio Wijnaldum and discarded goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen were both named by new coach Ronald Koeman in his first squad since taking over from Louis van Gaal. Cillessen, 33 and with 63 caps, was dropped from last year’s World Cup squad in a surprise move by Van Gaal. The Feyenoord trio of Lutsharel Geertruida, Quilindschy Hartman and Mats Wieffer all get a first call up as their club sit atop the Dutch league, while Anderlecht goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen is also included for the first time. We’re going to miss him, both on the field and in the squad.” Squad: Goalkeepers: Jasper Cillessen, Mark Flekken, Andries Noppert, Kjell Scherpen, Bart Verbruggen Defenders: Nathan Ake, Daley Blind, Sven Botman, Matthijs de Ligt, Stefan de Vrij, Denzel Dumfries, Jeremie Frimpong, Lutsharel Geertruida, Quilindschy Hartman, Tyrell Malacia, Kenny Tete, Jurrien Timber, Virgil van Dijk Midfielders: Steven Berghuis, Jordy Clasie, Frenkie de Jong, Marten de Roon, Ryan Gravenberch, Davy Klaassen, Teun Koopmeiners, Kenneth Taylor, Joey Veerman, Mats Wieffer, Georginio Wijnaldum Forwards: Steven Bergwijn, Brian Brobbey, Memphis Depay, Cody Gakpo, Vincent Janssen, Noa Lang, Xavi Simons, Wout Weghorst
