Lewis Miller ruled out of FIFA World Cup with ruptured Achilles
The CommBank #Socceroos can confirm that Lewis Miller (Blackburn Rovers) has ruptured his Achilles and underwent surgery this evening, ruling him out of the FIFA World Cup 2026.
Miller injured his Achilles in Blackburn’s 3-1 win over QPR last weekend in the English Championship.
The 25-year-old was a regular during the CommBank Socceroos’ FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign, scoring twice.
Miller, who made his senior international debut in 2023, has amassed 20 caps for his country.
Everyone at Football Australia wishes Lewis all the best in his recovery.
