THE HAGUE: Manchester United midfielder Donny van de Beek has been ruled out of Holland’s challenge for Euro 2020 because of injury, the national team announced today.
“Van de Beek has to let the European Championship pass by. The midfielder is struggling with an injury. As a result, he is not available in time for Euro 2020,” the team tweeted.
Holland coach Frank de Boer will not name a replacement for the 19-time capped van de Beek.
The 24-year-old started just four Premier League matches for United following his £35 million move from Ajax in September.
De Boer’s side starts its European Championship campaign by hosting Ukraine in Amsterdam on Sunday.
It will also face Austria and North Macedonia at the Johan Cruyff Arena in Group C.
