Jasper Cillessen will be Louis van Gaal’s number 1 in Brazil with Swansea City stopper Michel Vorm as back-up.
Krul will be in Brazil, but probably has as much chance of playing as you or I.
The Newcastle United keeper’s slot as number three has caused him problems all season, suggesting he could move clubs to gain Champions League experience.
The 26-year-old was a spectator for his country’s 2-0 win over Wales on Wednesday night but knows that with Van Gaal quitting his post for the top job at Manchester United, he will start afresh under incoming Dutch coach Gus Hiddink.
It is thought that, despite talk of interest from Juventus, AC Milan and Borussia Monchengladbach last season, there have been no approaches for the Dutch international.
And Krul is focused on Newcastle with his number 1 slot under no threat at the moment on Tyneside.
Krul still has another three years left of his current deal.
