Chelsea striker Sam Kerr has withdrawn from the Australian national team's upcoming friendly against Canada with a foot injury. The 30-year-old is a central figure and an attacking firepower in the Australian squad and her absence would be a major loss.

Kerr has just recently recovered from a hamstring injury during the Summer World Cup, but this new foot injury will require further action and rest.

Australia will play two friendlies against Canada, with the first game taking place at Starlight Stadium in Langford on Saturday and the second game at BC Place in Vancouver on Wednesday.

Kerr's absence is a major blow to the Australian team. She is Australia's top scorer and has scored more than 50 goals for her country in the last two years. She was also a key factor in Australia's success at the World Cup, helping them reach the quarter-finals.

Fans were disappointed with Kerr's exit, but they also understood her decision. They hope Kerr can recover soon and contribute to the Australian team in the future.

Sam Cole scored a stunning hat-trick in the Women's Champions League group stage at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea beat Paris FC.
