Koeman Sets Roles for Til and Wieffer in Netherlands Squad

Ronald Koeman clarified on Wednesday the positions Mats Wieffer and Guus Til will occupy for the Netherlands national team. The announcement came ahead of the next international fixtures.

Guus Til spent most of the season as a striker at PSV. He will be deployed as an attacking midfielder for the Netherlands.

Mats Wieffer will retain the right‑back role he holds at his club when playing for the Netherlands. Koeman emphasized the need for Wieffer to stay in his familiar defensive position.

Koeman indicated the assignments aim to balance offensive threat with defensive stability. The clear role definitions will guide selection for upcoming matches.

Til and Wieffer are expected to feature in the September qualifiers against Norway and Turkey. Their performances will be monitored by Koeman ahead of the Euro 2024 campaign.
