Australia skipper not included among 23 players to face world No 33New-look team to play two matches in Melbourne and Canberra
The long wait for Sam Kerr’s return to competitive football shows no sign of ending soon with the Matildas skipper missing from Australia’s squad for upcoming friendlies against Argentina.
Kerr is into a 16th month of recuperation after undergoing surgery on a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament sustained in January 2024, and while she tentatively returned to the training field at her club Chelsea towards the end of the Women’s Super League season, she is not yet deemed ready for a recall to the national set up.
