Castelen handed Dutch break

Romeo Castelen is an injury doubt for Holland's clash with Macedonia.

Dutch international Romeo Castelen is an injury doubt for Holland's clash with Macedonia at the weekend because of injury.

The Feyenoord favourite missed training on Wednesday on the orders of coach Marco van Basten, after bruising his left foot the previous day.

Castelen is expected to return to training later in the week and concedes he is desperate to make a recovery in time for Saturday's game.

''The intention is that I appear again on Thursday,'' revealed Castelen.

''The measure is taken as a precaution. Of course I don't want to miss the game with Macedonia.''
