The Netherlands have begun their final training session before Friday’s Nations League home match against Greece with all 24 internationals available, according to the Netherlands national news agency ANP.
Defender Sepp van den Berg joined the session in Zeist after being called up on Tuesday. ANP reported that Virgil van Dijk and Brian Brobbey were not fit enough for the closing group-stage matches against Greece and Germany.
Coach Xavi Hernández was due to discuss his plans at a press conference from 14:00. The Netherlands host Greece at the Johan Cruyff Arena on Friday, then travel to Berlin to play Germany three days later.
The Netherlands and Greece are level on eight points at the top of the group, with Germany on five and Serbia yet to earn a point. The top two qualify for next March’s quarter-finals.
