Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber has been ruled out of the Netherlands' World Cup campaign with a groin injury and replaced by Lutsharel Geertruida.
Timber had been out since the middle of March with a groin problem but featured in the second half of the Champions League final in Budapest on last month.
The 24-year-old came on as 66th-minute substitute against Paris St-Germain - his first appearance since a 2-0 win over Everton in March.
Gunners boss Mikel Arteta said before the final against Paris St-Germain that Timber was fit to play.
The Royal Dutch Football Association said on Monday that Timber had not recovered sufficiently to take part in the tournament in a medically responsible manner.
Timber has been capped 23 times by the Netherlands and made his first international appearance in June 2021.
Oranje boss Ronald Koeman has called up 25-year-old Geertruida who spent last season on loan at Sunderland from RB Leipzig.
The Netherlands face Japan in their Group F opener next Monday at 10am.
The FIFA World Cup starts this Friday in the United States, Mexico and Canada.
