Ipswich Town defender Cameron Burgess has been named in the Australia squad for their upcoming World Cup qualifiers this month. 

The 29-year-old has previously won 11 full caps for the Socceroos, who host Saudi Arabia in Melbourne on Thursday 14th November, before they travel to take on Bahrain on Tuesday 19th November.

Burgess recently made his Premier League debut for the Blues, starting in all of the last three games for Kieran McKenna's men.  

 

 

Tony Popovic's Socceroos are currently second in their group and start the third stage of the Asian World Cup qualification, having won once out of their four games so far. 

However, there’s no place in the squad for midfielder Massimo Luongo, who came out of international retirement ahead of the October internationals but had to pull out due to an ankle injury.

Luongo has returned from injury and was on the bench in Town's 1-1 draw with Leicester City last weekend.
