Chelsea’s PSV star, Tottenham keeper called into Holland squad for England encounter

The Holland national team have announced that Marco van Ginkel and Michel Vorm have both been called up by Danny Blind.

The Dutch are preparing to meet England in an international friendly at Wembley on Tuesday and have made some changes to their squad.

Chelsea midfielder van Ginkel, who is currently starring on loan with PSV Eindhoven, has replaced Ajax ace Davy Klaassen who has a knee injury.

Tottenham goalkeeper Vorm, who last played for the Oranje when coming on as a late sub against Brazil at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, comes in to take the place of Ajax number one Jasper Cillessen who sustained a broken nose at training.

Holland were beaten 3-2 by France on Friday and will now head to London to meet the Three Lions who came from two goals down to defeat Germany 3-2 in Berlin on Saturday.
