Loovens called up for Dutch team

Netherlands coach Bert van Marwijk has included Celtic defender Glenn Loovens in his selection for the upcoming friendly with Japan and the World Cup qualifier with Scotland.

Loovens is the only new face in the Dutch squad, which also includes Wesley Sneijder, Rafael van der Vaart, Dirk Kuyt, Robin van Persie and Arjen Robben.

The Dutch side face Japan in Enschede on September 5th, and travel to Scotland for a qualifier four days later. Although Van Marwijk’s men are already certain of a spot at next year’s World Cup, it will be a vital game to the Scottish side.

Goalkeepers: Maarten Stekelenburg, Piet Velthuizen, Michel Vorm

Defenders: Giovanni van Bronckhorst, Glenn Loovens, John Heitinga, Edson Braafheid, Joris Mathijsen, Andre Ooijer, Gregory van der Wiel

Midfielders: Ibrahim Affelay, Nigel de Jong, David Mendes da Silva, Stijn Schaars, Wesley Sneijder, Rafael van der Vaart, Demy de Zeeuw

Forwards: Eljero Elia, Klaas Jan Huntelaar, Dirk Kuyt, Robin van Persie, Arjen Robben
