AMSTERDAM, June 9 (Reuters) - Fit-again defender Ron Vlaar will be available for Netherlands' key EURO 2016 qualifier against Latvia in Riga on Friday, team officials said on Tuesday.
Vlaar trained with the Dutch team on Monday and showed no signs of any discomfort from a knee injury that kept him out of Friday's friendly loss to the United States in Amsterdam.
His progress has been keenly followed in the wake of the 4-3 loss to the Americans which exposed deficiencies in the Dutch defence.
Vlaar is expected to start in centre defence alongside Stefan de Vrij, who also did not play in last week's friendly.
