Matildas rule out Sam Kerr and fellow attacker Amy Sayer for Olympics

Matildas captain and superstar striker Sam Kerr and fellow attacker Amy Sayer have both officially been ruled out of the Paris Olympic Games after undergoing knee reconstructions. Meanwhile, much-loved veteran Katrina Gorry also remains in doubt for the Olympics. Gorry had ankle surgery last month and is in a race against time for the Olympics that start in late July.

“The squad we have named ... is based on their performances for their respective clubs and also in our national team environment,” Gustavsson said. “Some players are selected based on past performances, in tournaments and in previous camps, while others are chosen for their current strong form. “With the Olympics approaching, selection is about seeing the overall picture over four years of performance and assembling the best team possible.” The squad for the Olympics will be announced in June.
