Alex Robertson himself has withdrawn from the Australia squad for the upcoming international break due to personal reasons.

Socceroos boss Tony Popovic confirmed the Cardiff City midfielder - who has been in excellent form this season - would not be involved in the friendlies against Qatar and Jordan this month.

There have been concerns among Australian players over security surrounding the trip to Jordan, but Popovic clarified that Robertson’s absence is NOT related to those concerns.

Brian Barry-Murphy had previously stated Robertson was contending with an ongoing Achilles issue in recent weeks.

Definitely good news, we don't want him travelling to the Middle East and back. He's had a few fitness issues this week too.

Don't blame him for withdrawing from their squad.
