Ronald Koeman described the Premier League as “the best competition” in world football following his team selection for the Netherlands’ upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
The Netherlands take on Poland this Thursday before travelling to S. Dariaus ir S. Gireno stadionas to face Lithuania three days later in their two Group G clashes this month.
Koeman’s side are unbeaten so far from their two group games, thrashing Malta 8-0 before Memphis Depay and Denzel Dumfries sealed a 2-0 triumph over Finland in June.
The Dutch boss announced his 25-man squad for their September fixtures last Friday, with 13 members of his team now plying their trade in the Premier League.
The likes of Tijjani Reijnders, Jorrel Hato, Xavi Simons and Robin Roefs all completed moves to England this summer, taking the number of Dutch players in the top flight to 36.
