Frank de Boer believes there are plenty of young players pushing for a place in the Netherlands squad, including Sven Botman and Ryan Gravenberch.

After naming his Netherlands squad for the upcoming games with Spain, Poland and Bosnia & Herzegovina, De Boer spoke to Ons Oranje about the talents coming through.

He said, “A lot of young talents are knocking on the door. Michel Bakker at Paris Saint-Germain and Sven Botman just plays every game since he signed with Lille.”

De Boer also sees a number coming through in the Eredivisie, “Mo Ihattaren (PSV) of course and Calvin Stengs (AZ).

“(Ryan) Gravenberch is doing fantastic, also at an international level. He is also certainly a candidate that comes to mind.”

“You really have a lot of young talents knocking on the door.”
