Kenji Gorré

Gorre (knee) played the first half of Sunday's 4-0 victory over Aruba, confirming his return to full fitness and setting himself up for an important impact role off the bench for Curacao at the World Cup.

Analysis: Gorre ended the club season with five goals and 11 assists across 1,896 minutes for Maccabi Haifa across all competitions, demonstrating consistent creative output that makes him a dangerous option whenever he takes the field. The veteran's ability to come on and change games with his directness, pace and delivery gives coach Dick Advocaat a genuine match-winning option from the bench or from the start throughout the tournament.

Back on bench vs. Scotland

Gorre was available from the bench in Saturday's 4-1 defeat against Scotland, marking a significant step forward in his recovery from the knee injury that disrupted the end of his club season with Maccabi Haifa.

Analysis: Gorre had been present at Curacao's World Cup training camp but questions remained over his fitness levels after the knee issue, making his inclusion in the matchday squad an encouraging development. The winger is expected to be one of Curacao's key attacking weapons on the left flank and the coaching staff will be optimistic about having him available and building toward full fitness ahead of the tournament opener against Germany on June 14.
