 "Euro 2020: Netherlands's Donny van de Beek ruled out of tournament due to injury")
Netherlands midfielder Donny van de Beek will miss the European Championship because of an injury, the team said on Tuesday.
The 24-year-old Van de Beek had hoped to return from a groin injury that limited his playing time last season at Manchester United.
The midfielder is “struggling with an injury,” the national team said, and won’t be available for the tournament. Coach Frank de Boer will not be naming a replacement, the team said.

He was on the bench for a friendly against Scotland last Wednesday.
