Koeman rules out Zian Flemming as Weghorst replacement

Netherlands coach Ronald Koeman said Zian Flemming was never an option to replace Wout Weghorst.

Flemming, a Burnley striker, has netted eleven Premier League goals this season.

Koeman stressed that no alternative matches Weghorst’s profile for the national side.

The comments came as the coach evaluated options for the striker role.

Burnley competes in England’s Premier League, where Flemming’s goals have drawn attention.

Despite his tally, Koeman maintains the position remains tied to Weghorst’s unique attributes.

The Netherlands will continue without a designated replacement for Weghorst ahead of upcoming fixtures.

Koeman’s stance suggests the striker slot may stay unchanged until further assessment.
