Seamus Coleman returns to the Republic of Ireland international squad as captain for next week’s Nations League matches against Finland and England.
The Everton defender missed the games against Greece and the Finns in October because of injury.
But he and Shane Duffy are both included for games against Finland at home next Thursday, and then England at Wembley the following Sunday.
Stoke City striker Tom Cannon comes back into the squad, after he made his international debut for Ireland against Portugal earlier in the year, and midfielder Andy Moran has been promoted to the senior squad following his impressive performances for Ireland U-21s and the conclusion of that campaign last month.
Luton Town defender Mark McGuinness keeps his place in the squad after he was named in the October squad but missed both games through injury and will be hopeful of making his senior Ireland debut in the upcoming matches.
