Brady and Dunne named by Ireland
Martin O’Neill has today named his provisional squad for international games against Northern Ireland and Denmark and it signals a return to international action for Robbie Brady and a first ever call up for Jimmy Dunne; the pair join fellow Clarets Kevin Long and Jeff Hendrick in the squad.
The first of those games is against Northern Ireland in a friendly at the Aviva Stadium on Thursday 15th November. They then follow that up with the Nations League game in Denmark on Monday 19th.
Our two other Ireland players, Steven Ward and Jonathan Walters, both remain out on injured but for Brady this is his first call up for a year since suffering the serious knee injury last December and for Dunne, a brilliant reward for his form at Hearts.
