Joshua Zirkzee has been excluded from the Netherlands' matchday squad for their UEFA Nations League game against Hungary. He was initially named in the 25-man squad but did not make the final 23 selected by coach Ronald Koeman. Zirkzee joined Manchester United from Bologna in the summer but has struggled to make an impact, scoring only one goal since his arrival. He previously played in two Nations League matches last month, including a start against Hungary. Despite his challenges at United, former manager Ruud van Nistelrooy expressed support for Zirkzee, highlighting his potential and recent performance against Crystal Palace.
