The surprise was done by Ronald Koeman calling to the Dutch national team him 17-year-old Ajax defender Yorel Hato in view of the last matches of the “Oranie” in the qualifiers for EURO 2024.
THE born on March 7, 2006 ace made his professional debut last April with Ajax and this year he has already made 16 appearances in the first team of “Aianda”, while he is a four-time international player with the country’s Elpidon national team. The young centre-back was called up due to the absences of the injured Matthias de Ligt and Mickey van de Ven, but also because he is considered one of the new big talents of Dutch football, with a market value that already reaches 10 million euros.
The “oranie” will face on 17/11 in Amsterdam, Ireland and on 21/11 in Faro, Gibraltar and they need a win to “seal” second place in the 2nd group and qualification to the finals, ahead of Greece. Liverpool’s Cody Hakpo, who missed the October matches through injury, returns to Koeman’s 25, as do goalkeeper Justin Bailov, midfielder Gerdy Southen and striker Calvin Stengs. On the other hand, the injured Frankie De Jong and Memphis Depay are absent.
