Albion duo Steven Alzate and Alireza Jahanbakhsh have both been withdrawn from international duty for Colombia and Iran respectively.
Colombia have agreed the versatile Alzate, who was called into their under-23 squad for two friendly matches against Peru in Lima, should remain with Albion for treatment on a minor injury.
Alzate, who signed a new contract on Friday, came off in the 88th minute in the 3-0 win over Spurs yesterday.
Wideman Jahanbakhsh, an unused substitute for the game against Tottenham and at Chelsea the previous weekend, has not played since he picked up an injury on international duty and Iran have agreed he can miss games against Cambodia and Bahrain as he works his way back to full fitness.
Left-back Gaetan Bong, who came on for Alzate against Spurs, has been called into the Cameroon squad for their friendly international in Tunisia next Saturday.
