Lincoln City's Jack Moylan has been called up for the Republic of Ireland's friendly against Qatar after a series of late withdrawals ahead of the upcoming international window.
Manager Heimir Hallgrimsson issued an updated squad list after the Middlesbrough duo Alan Browne and Alex Gilbert and the Southampton pair of Ryan Manning and Finn Azaz were forced to withdraw following their involvement in the controversial Championship play-off saga.
Andrew Omobamidele, currently at Strasbourg, has also been ruled out with injury.
In their place, the manager has called up Dara O'Shea and Jack Moylan specifically for the home game against Qatar. They will not travel to Canada, while Caoimhín Kelleher will also drop out for that game.
The former Shelbourne star Moylan struck a hat-trick on his debut in Murcia, the first Irish player to do that since David Kelly in 1987.
