Liverpool defender Jeremie Frimpong has been left out of the Netherlands squad for the 2026 World Cup. Coach Ronald Koeman named his 26-man squad for the tournament on Wednesday, with Frimpong among the omissions.

Frenkie de Jong will be out for approximately six weeks. Sometimes I think it might be good for someone to be out for six weeks so that they get less tired. Even so, we have to wait for him to regain his fitness once he returns.
Q. Ronald Koeman did it as a player and a manager in his home country. Maniche did it as a player in his, too. No one's ever done it as a player or a manager in England. Where did Edgar Davids do it?
