Robin van Persie has withdrawn from the Holland squad for the forthcoming international break.
Louis van Gaal's men are due to play friendlies against Japan and Colombia as they step up their preparations for next summer's World Cup.
But they will have to make do without Van Persie, who has pulled out citing injuries to his toe and groin.
The Dutchman has suffered with the injuries in recent weeks, but was on target as his club side Manchester United beat Arsenal 1-0 at the weekend.
