De Haan: Drenthe not ready for Premiership

Holland U21 coach Foppe de Haan has urged Feyenoord wing-back Roysten Drenthe to resist a move to the Premiership this summer.

Chelsea and West Ham have been linked with Drenthe, but De Haan says Ajax's Ryan Babel is more suited to the Premiership.

"They are good enough, but they are very young," de Haan told Sky Sports. "Babel was playing very good today, Drenthe was not so good today, but in the days before he was very good.

"For Drenthe it is too early I think, but Babel? Maybe."
