Tim Krul described himself as "devastated" after the Newcastle United goalkeeper was ruled out for the rest of the season with a knee injury.
The 27-year-old ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during Netherlands' 2-1 win over Kazakhstan in Euro 2016 qualifying on Saturday.
"I'm devastated the scan has confirmed my biggest fear that I have torn my knee cruciate playing for Holland in the game vs Kazakhstan last night," he said in a message posted on his official Twitter account on Sunday.
"My recovery and hard work starts now to fully recover.
"I'm devastated I can't play a part on the pitch to help the team turn this season around. I still believe this club can and should be up there with the top teams."
Newcastle, meanwhile, have recalled Freddie Woodman from a loan spell with League Two Crawley Town following Krul's injury.
