Former Chelsea defender Khalid Boulahrouz says Holland coach Frank de Boer is right to ignore Leeds United stopper Pascal Struijk.

The former Holland youth international is speaking with Belgium coach Roberto Martinez about switching allegiances ahead of this summer's Euros.

For Boulahrouz, De Boer shouldn't be concerned, insisting: “Oranje comes too early.

“I do think that he is a player who can develop more gradually as he plays more matches.

"But now? No."
