De Jong and Depay make final Netherlands squad for Euro 2024, Maatsen cut

Frenkie de Jong and Memphis Depay have been included in the Netherlands’ final Euro 2024 squad despite fitness concerns, with Borussia Dortmund’s Ian Maatsen among those cut.

Earlier this month, coach Ronald Koeman named a 30-man preliminary squad for the Oranje’s Euro 2024 campaign, which begins against Poland on June 16.

De Jong was included despite not playing for Barcelona since April 21 due to an ankle issue, while Atletico Madrid’s Depay only recently returned to action following a six-week spell on the sidelines.

Both players have avoided being cut from Koeman’s initial selection, with Atalanta’s Marten De Roon already confirmed as missing out due to a muscle injury.
