The Dutch national team's preparations for the 2026 World Cup: mini-camp in the USA

 The Dutch national team, led by coach Ronald Koeman, is preparing for the 2026 World Cup, which will be held in Canada, Mexico and the United States. As part of these preparations, a mini-training camp in the USA was planned. Before flying to New York, the team will play a farewell match against Algeria on June 3 at De Kuip Stadium. Then, on June 4, the players and training staff will leave for the United States. The mini-camp will take place from June 5 to 8. During this time, the Dutch will work on their form during intensive training sessions and will play a friendly match against Uzbekistan on June 8 at 20:45 Dutch time (14:45 local time) at the Icahn Stadium in New York. The match will be held without spectators, which was agreed with local authorities due to the large number of events that day in New York. After the mini-camp, the team will travel to Kansas City, where they will be based at the Cascade Hotel and training will take place at the KC Current Training Facility.
