Southampton Striker Michael Obafemi Wins Ireland Call

0

Southampton striker Michael Obafemi has been called into the Republic of Ireland squad.
The 18-year-old was born in Dublin to Nigerian parents and left for England as a child.
He has represented Ireland at underage level but there have been indications that he would be open to a switch to Nigeria, while the English FA have also shown interest in the striker who came off the bench against Manchester City over the weekend.
Ireland coach Martin O'Neill has also handed first calls to Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, Rotherham's Ryan Manning and Hearts defender Jimmy Dunne - the latter has been linked with a switch to Northern Ireland.
