Club career

Early career

International career

Senior national team

On 7 May 2012, De Vrij was named in the provisional list of 36 players for the UEFA Euro 2012 tournament, one of nine uncapped players to be chosen by Netherlands manager Bert van Marwijk as part of the preliminary squad. However, he didnt make ít through the final cut. On 15 August 2012, De Vrij made his debut under new manager Louis van Gaal in the 4–2 loss against Belgium in a friendly match.

He was one of four Feyenoord defenders named in Louis van Gaal's squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. In the Netherlands' first match of the tournament, against Spain on 13 June, he gave away a penalty after 26 minutes by fouling Diego Costa, which Xabi Alonso converted to put Spain 1-0 up. The Dutch fought back, and De Vrij scored their third goal, the first of his international career, as the Dutch eventually won with 5–1.
