Netherlands XI vs Romania: Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Euro 2024 today

Netherlands manager Ronald Koeman has made three changes ahead of his side’s Euro 2024 clash with Romania today.

The Oranje are yet to discover their best line-up at Euro 2024 and, despite finishing third in their group, expectations will be high against one of the lesser-fancied teams left in the competition.

Koeman hooked midfielder Joey Veerman during the first half of Tuesday’s defeat to Austria and his replacement, Xavi Simons, gets the nod in a central role for this game having failed to impress on the right wing earlier in the tournament.

That position could be occupied by Steven Bergwijn, which sees Donyell Malen drop out.

At right-back, Denzel Dumfries returns after being dropped for Lutsharel Geertruida last time out.

Memphis Depay justified his role as Netherlands’ leading man with a goal against Austria and Cody Gakpo will once again take up his position on the left wing having scored twice in Germany. Nathan Ake beats Micky van de Ven to starting at left-back.
