The 29-year-old has not played for Atletico Madrid since the 30th of April but Ronald Koeman included him in the squad for the upcoming game against Croatia in the hope that he would return in time.
However, Memphis has now informed Koeman that the game will come too early for him and he needs to pull out of the squad.
The Netherlands squad still consists of 25 players but Koeman will need to decide on a definite selection of 23 before the game against Croatia on the 14th of June.
Koeman need to consider the fact that Netherland today is not producing enough quakity in attacking players. Nowadays we got far better options to play rather more defensive. It’s not total football for sure, but we should play our best with what we have; and quality defender.. we have in abundance.
