Defenders Wilfred Bouma and Jetro Willems were the surprise names in the Netherlands squad for Euro 2012 with Vurnon Anita, Siem de Jong, Adam Maher and Jeremain Lens all missing out.
Coach Bert van Marwijk cut his provisional 27-man squad to the required 23 ahead of a friendly against Bulgaria in Amsterdam later on Saturday.
PSV Eindhoven's Bouma, 33, won his last cap for the Dutch during the previous Euro finals four years ago against Romania while 18-year-old Willems still has to make his debut.
Willems came into the PSV team this season and replaced Van Marwijk's first choice Erik Pieters, who is out for months with a broken foot.
The Dutch play Slovakia on Wednesday and Northern Ireland next Saturday in their final two friendlies before they travel to their base in the Polish city of Krakow.
The 2010 World Cup runners-up will start their Euro campaign on June 9 against Denmark in Ukraine's Kharkiv before facing Germany and Portugal in Group B.
