Meet the Dutch WAGs – from MTV EMAs street-dancer to former hockey rising star

The Netherlands have undoubtedly been one of the surprise packages of the World Cup.

Louis van Gaal has rolled back the years with the Oranje in Qatar by making them a force once again. Though the side are far more defensive than the iconic, fluid sides of the 1970s and early 1990s, they have reaped the rewards of a cautious approach through some devastating counter-attacking play.

That has earned them a spot in the quarter-finals, where they will come up against Lionel Messi and his Argentina side.

Only 1,400 Dutch fans are expected to be in attendance at the Lusail Stadium in comparison to tens of thousands of Argentines, but the players will take joy in having their glamorous WAGs cheering them on in the stands.

Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong is nearly always the silkiest player on the pitch – and he must have a certain degree of sauce off it too. His long-term girlfriend is 24-year-old Mikky Kiemeney, a social media influencer with 1.5million followers on Instagram.

Mikky runs her own clothing brand – MIKKY KI – that offers a range of streetwear. It appears Kiemeney could have been a sports star herself too, having previously played hockey for HC Den Bosch’s women’s team and made her debut aged just 17.

The couple met while De Jong was creating a name for himself at Ajax and currently live together in Catalonia.
