UEFA European U21 Championship host the Netherlands will be without <L CODE="C01">Ibrahim Afellay</L> when they defend their title this summer. An MRI scan at hospital revealed that the midfielder has sustained a serious ankle injury and after careful consideration and consultation with the medical staff of PSV and the Dutch team, Afellay has decided not to take part in the UEFA European U21 Championship. Ibrahim Afellay will receive treatment at PSV the next few weeks. Last season he was also forced to withdraw from the Dutch U21 team that won the Euro 2006 in Portugal. Afellay is also ruled out of the three remaining games that PSV play this season, away against FC Eindhoven and the amateurs of Heesch and VV Acht.
