One of their most experienced players, perhaps the key man in the middle of the park for Curacao is former Aston Villa midfielder Leandro Bacuna. A former Netherlands U19 and U21 international, Bacuna, who will play alongside Juninho this summer, has over 70 caps for Curacao now and is their all-time appearance maker heading into the FIFA World Cup, having made his debut in 2016. The 34-year-old can also fill in at right-back with his experience and versatility crucial for Dick Advocaat.
