Reported Rangers target Joey Veerman has bitten back at his international disappointment with the Netherlands to earn a special Eredivisie accolade this week.
Big things are expected of the talented Heerenveen playmaker, 22, and Veerman has been extensively linked with a move from the Abe Lenstra Stadion this summer.

The player himself has made no bones about his desire to move with Rangers, Atalanta, Verona, Ajax, PSV and Feyenoord all linked to the player at one stage.
But Heerenveen remain determined to rake in around £8m for Joey who has three years left on his contract.
Despite his burgeoning reputation, the talented Veerman was left out of Louis van Gaal’s first provisional 23-man squad for the Netherlands but this weekend responded in style.
Joey played the full 90 minutes for Heerenveen in their opening day 1-0 Eredivisie win over Go Ahead Eagles to show van Gaal and co exactly what they’re missing.
The midfielder’s performance even earned him a place in the Eredivisie’s Team of the Week.
