And now it's been confirmed by the Oranje that, despite being picked in their initial 26-man squad, he will be absent for the tournament.
Coach Ronald Koeman has called up Lutsharel Geertruida of Sunderland as Timber’s replacement.
Netherlands have been drawn in a tough group alongside Japan, Sweden and Tunisia.
