National coach Ronald Koeman is thinking of getting Emanuel Emegha after Mexx Meerdink from the Orange selection. The 22-year-old striker of Strasbourg is currently injured and was therefore not an option for the World Cup qualifying matches against Malta (Thursday) and Finland (Sunday).
“Of course I look to the future of Orange and therefore to strikers with possibilities. Mexx had been in the back of our heads for some time, just like Emegha,” Koeman said on Monday at the first press conference of the Orange of this international match period.
The national coach took the 22-year-old Meerdink for the first time in the selection, but that does not mean that he prefers AZ’s striker over Emegha. “A while ago we heard that Emegha suffered from his hamstring. The choice between Emegha and Meerdink was not yet made.”
Meerdink, who made three Eredivisie goals this season, reported to Oranje on Monday afternoon. “He came in with a smile on his face,” said Koeman. “That also seems logical to me.”
The question is whether Meerdink already has playing time against Malta. Koeman wanted to start the number 166 of the FIFA ranking with Memphis Depay, but that is canceled. The Corinthians striker will only join Zeist on Tuesday, because his passport was stolen and he could not travel from Brazil to the Netherlands. Koeman then decided to put a line through the basic place of the 31-year-old Memphis.

Brobbey and Zirkzee not an option
Wout Weghorst and Donyell Malen now seem to be the options to start as a rush against Malta, while Meerdink probably has to hope for a raid.
Emegha may get the chance in the next international match period (in November). Brian Brobbey (Sunderland) and Joshua Zirkzee (Manchester United) are currently not in the picture for the rush -hour position. “They have to play more at their clubs to become an option again. In the meantime, we also look further,” said Koeman.
