Netherlands coach Guus Hiddink has included striker Luuk de Jong for the forthcoming football matches against Mexico and Latvia to replace midfielder Nigel de Jong.
AC Milan midfielder Nigel de Jong withdrew from the squad due to a hamstring injury, confirmed FIFA’s official website.
With the addition of the other De Jong the selection of Hiddink now consists of 23 players again. The 24-year-old Luuk de Jong played his last of seven internationals in February 2012 against England (3-2 win).
Manchester United striker Robin van Perise has been ruled out by Hiddink due to the player’s lack of match fitness.
"Van Persie is not quite fit," Hiddink told reporters. "He trained today, but he did not fully participate. I don't think he will be used against Mexico. Clasie is not fit. He has hamstring problems."
Ajax midfielder Davy Klaassen had already cancelled his participation due to a groin injury Sunday was replaced by Queens Park Rangers midfielder Leroy Fer.
The Netherlands play a friendly against Mexico Wednesday in Amsterdam and a Euro 2016 qualifier against Latvia Nov 16 in Amsterdam. The Dutch are under pressure after two defeats in three matches in Group A and are six points behind Iceland and the Czech Republic.
