Robin van Persie has been left out of the Holland squad for their matches against Turkey and Spain later this month.

The forward is currently out with an ankle injury he sustained in Manchester United’s 2-1 defeat at Swansea last month.

Van Persie’s United team-mate Daley Blind has been included in Guus Hiddink’s squad, however, alongside Newcastle’s Tim Krul and Daryl Janmaat, Aston Villa’s Ron Vlaar and Southampton’s Eljero Elia.

The match against Turkey on 28 March is a Euro 2016 qualifier, while the contest with Spain, who Holland faced in the 2010 World Cup final, is a friendly.
