He was also forced to miss Scotland’s 1-1 draw against Poland last week, with first-team coach Steven Naismith confirmed the defender had tested positive for Covid-19.
But Robertson’s now over his illness and back in action.
It means that he should be available for Saturday’s visit of Watford in the Premier League.
Robertson said: "I love playing games, I don't want to be sitting in my house if I don't have to be.
