Aziz Behich has once again been called up to the Socceroos squad, the City skipper set to rejoin national team camp in Adelaide this weekend.
A mainstay of the Socceroos setup for the last decade, Behich was on Friday morning included in new Head Coach Tony Popovic’s first international squad.
He was joined in the 26-man squad by a host of former City stars including Jordy Bos, Connor Metcalfe and Aiden O’Neill.
The squad will assemble in Adelaide over the weekend ahead of a crucial World Cup Qualifier against China, before travelling to Japan for a second vital fixture of the October window.
Behich will then return to Australia and quickly shift focus to our Round 1 A-League Men’s clash away to Newcastle Jets on Saturday 19 October.
