Frank de Boer made the selection of the Dutch national team on Friday for the upcoming exhibition match against Mexico and the Nations League duels with Bosnia and Herzegovina and Italy. The national coach of Orange is sticking to the three goalkeepers that Dwight Lodeweges also selected in September. Valentine Driessen from The Telegraph would have liked to see it differently. “I miss one name: Justin Bijlow from Feyenoord,” the journalist said in a video item for his newspaper.

De Boer presumably retains Jasper Cillessen from Valencia as the first goalkeeper and further selected Marco Bizot from AZ and Tim Krul from Norwich City. Given his achievements, Bijlow deserved an invitation, says Driessen. “He is working on an impressive series of matches. I think he is really good goalkeeper. I saw him at work a few matches, he took out a penalty from Erling Haaland, among other things. He is a very young boy, he plays for Jong Oranje and has already been in the pre-selection for Orange once.

Driessen believes that Bijlow should in any case have been called up as a reserve goalkeeper. “We have Cillessen, who is now coming back from an injury. That is the first choice, as long as he does not make any headway”, the journalist says. “Then we have Marco Bizot from AZ, who goes almost every week in the know, almost every week against a goal. Tim Krul is doing well (at Norwich, ed.), But he hits the second level in England. I just have to call Bijlow there once. “

Although Bijlow is not there yet, Driessen foresees a great future for the 22-year-old goalie. “He is the next goalkeeper of the Dutch national team anyway. I don’t see any other talents walking around of which I think: they are much better than Bijlow. He has a good kick, he always stays calm. It’s just a good keeper on the line. he plays football well. And then I miss him. The Juniors play against Gibraltar, they also win without Bijlow. ” In addition, the Juniors will play against Cyprus this period. Both matches are in the context of the European Championship qualification.
