Robin van Persie and John Heitinga could very well miss out on the Netherlands’ World Cup qualifier with Iceland on Saturday.
The Arsenal and Atlético de Madrid players skipped training on Tuesday. Van Persie is dealing with a hamstring issue, while Heitinga has been trying to shake off a knee injury since the match with FYR Macedonia last month.
Dutch coach Bert van Marwijk has several injury worries. Winger Arjen Robben suffered another injury on the weekend and won’t be able to make an appearance in the upcoming qualifiers. First choice goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg is injured as well, and will most probably be replaced by Edwin van der Sar, who makes a temporary comeback.
The Dutch face Iceland on Saturday, followed by a crucial match with Norway four days later.
