Who is Netherlands coach?
Considered one of the best attacking centre-backs of all time, Ronald Koeman was a crucial part of the Netherlands team that won EURO '88. He boasts an impressive managerial CV having taken charge of the likes of Ajax, Benfica, Barcelona and many more. Among plenty of coaching honours, he has won three Dutch Eredivisie titles and two Spanish Cups.
Netherlands key player: Memphis Depay
The Atlético de Madrid ace has had a frustrating run of injuries in recent seasons, but when fit he's the undisputed spearhead of the Dutch attack. Only six goals short of Robin van Persie's all-time record of 50, Depay averages a goal every two matches for the national team – and supplies plenty of assists too.
Netherlands one to watch: Jeremie Frimpong
Frimpong hasn't featured much in an orange shirt yet but he's knocking on the door after a spectacular season with Leverkusen. The 23-year-old was the most productive defender in Europe's top five leagues in 2023/24, having been involved in 18 Bundesliga goals at the time of writing. An attack-minded right-back with boundless energy, Frimpong's ability to round off his forward surges with a decisive pass or telling finish could be invaluable.
