Vargil Van Dijk withdraws from Netherlands squad


The Dutch skipper will play no part in Tuesday's final Euro 2020 qualifier against Estonia at the Johan Cruijff Arena.

Netherlands captain Virgil van Dijk has withdrawn from the squad for Tuesday’s Euro 2020 qualifier against Estonia for personal reasons.
The 28-year-old Liverpool defender played the full 90 minutes against Northern Ireland on Friday as the Dutch secured their place at next summer’s tournament, their first major finals since 2014, courtesy of a goalless draw in Belfast.
However, he will play no part when the Netherlands wrap up their qualifying campaign in Amsterdam on Tuesday.
“National team coach Ronald Koeman cannot call on VirgiI van Dijk on Tuesday against Estonia,” read a Netherlands statement.
“The captain of the Dutch national team has to miss the game due to personal circumstances and has since left the Oranje training camp.”
