Noa Lang returns to the pre -selection of the Dutch football team, which plays two games for the Nations League against Spain in March. National coach Ronald Koeman, unlike clubmate Joey Veerman, has reserved a place for the PSV player.

PSV midfielder Jerdy Schouten is also on the list, just like for a long time.

Furthermore, Koeman wants to appeal to, among others, the Breda keeper Bart Verbruggen (Brighton), the Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk, which was also from Breda, and the born Eindhovenaar Cody Gakpo (also Liverpool).

Memphis Depay is also included in the provisional group. Since the final round of the European Championship, the former PSV player was missing in the selection of Orange. The 31-year-old attacker has been on track at his new club lately, the Brazilian Corinthians.

In the quarterfinals of the Nations League, the Netherlands will take on Spain on Thursday 20 March and Sunday 23 March. First in De Kuip in Rotterdam, then in Mestalla. The winner of the double meeting qualifies for the semi -final. Croatia or France awaits there. The final of the Nations League will be played on Sunday 8 June.
