London: Denmark defender Daniel Agger has withdrawn from November friendlies against South Korea and the United States with a back injury, the FA said.
The Liverpool centre-back has missed three of Denmark's nine matches this year because of the injury, which resurfaced in Monday's 2-2 draw with Birmingham City in the Premier League.
Agger has been replaced in the squad by OB Odense's Anders Moller Christensen for the matches on Nov. 14 and 18 in Esbjerg and Aarhus, the Danish FA website said.
