Jurrien Timber injury blow ends World Cup before it begins
Jurrien Timber injury blow ends World Cup before it begins Just a few days before the World Cup is due to get under way, Jurrien Timber has been withdrawn from the Netherlands team due to the groin injury that disrupted the latter stages of his season. Sunderland’s Lutsharel Geertruida has been called up to replace him. KNVB said in a statement on Monday, “Jurrien 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. We’re with you, Jurrien.”
