Three Saints Named In U21 Squad

Sam Curtis, Adam Murphy and Conor Carty have been selected for the Ireland U21 squad for their upcoming games.

Former Saints Josh Keeley and James Abankwah have been named in the squad for the Under-21s EURO Qualifier double-header against Turkiye and San Marino in Cork next week.

Ireland go into the games in good form having beaten Iceland 2-1 at home in March.

They then followed this with a 2-2 draw against eventual U21 EURO Semi Finalists Ukraine before beating Kuwait 3-0 to end their June international window.

The squad is set to meet up on Sunday where they'll be joined by new assistant coach Paul McShane who was appointed to the role on Monday.

Ireland take on Turkiye in an evening kick-off (7.30pm) on Friday, September 8 at Turner's Cross.

They then return to Turner's Cross on Tuesday September 12 (kick-off 7.30pm) for the visit of San Marino.
