Jurriën Timber misses the 2026 World Cup.
The 24-year-old defender has not recovered sufficiently from a groin injury to take part in the World Cup in a medically responsible manner. In consultation with the medical staff, it has therefore been decided that Timber will leave the national team’s pre-camp in New York after the game against Uzbekistan.
Ronald Koeman has called up Lutsharel Geertruida (Sunderland) as Timber’s replacement. This brings the Netherlands squad at the base camp in Kansas back to 26 players.

timber was not even fit enough to future against psg but arsenal brought him on which might have accelerated his injury...he was supposed to be out for the rest of the season if he wanted to participate in world cup so that he could recover, he was rushed back and now he has lost both champions league and world
