Profile:

Yet another of the Barcelona backline who will form part of the Dutch backline in Euro2000, Reiziger is a speedy, experienced right-sided player.

Like the injured Winston Bogarde, he was unable to make the grade at AC Milan and joined Barca in July 1997.

Made his debut with Ajax at the age of 17, and moved to the Primera Liga for £3million. Forced Albert Ferrer out of the Barca line-up and has been linked with a move to the Premiership, particularly Manchester United, in the recent past.

Commanded well from the back and had an excellent game despite picking up a booking against Denmark.
