Everton captain Seamus Coleman has not been named in the Republic of Ireland squad for the start of their World Cup qualification campaign against Hungary and Armenia next month.
Ireland boss Heimir Hallgrimsson described Coleman as a “leader in this squad” after the veteran full-back withdrew from June friendlies against Senegal and Luxembourg through injury.
Hallgrimsson said he hoped Coleman would return to the new campaign “fit and flying”, but the 36-year-old has been an unused substitute in Everton’s first two games of the new Premier League season.
The injured Robbie Brady, Ferencvaros summer signing Callum O’Dowda and Istanbul Basaksehir’s Festy Ebosele also miss out.
Southampton goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu and Ipswich striker Chiedozie Ogbene are included for the World Cup opener against Hungary in Dublin on September 6 and the long trip to Armenia three days later.
Bazunu has recovered from a knee injury to start for Saints this season, and Ogbene also returns for the first time since October 2024 after rupturing an Achilles tendon.
Uncapped Stoke defender Bosun Lawal, who was called up for the summer friendly with Luxembourg, and QPR centre-back Jimmy Dunne feature in Hallgrimsson’s 23-player squad.
Burnley captain Josh Cullen returns after being rested for the summer friendlies, and is joined in midfield by Jason Knight, Killian Phillips and Jack Taylor.
Hallgrimsson will be heartened by the early-season form of strikers Troy Parrott and Evan Ferguson.
Parrott has scored 10 goals already for AZ Alkmaar and in seven consecutive matches – a club record for the Dutch side – while Ferguson was named player of the match on his Serie A debut for Roma in their 1-0 victory over Bologna on Saturday.
Republic of Ireland squad
Goalkeepers: Caoimhin Kelleher (Brentford), Gavin Bazunu (Southampton), Mark Travers (Everton).
Defenders: Matt Doherty (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Jake O’Brien (Everton), Nathan Collins (Brentford), Dara O’Shea (Ipswich Town), Jimmy Dunne (Queens Park Rangers), Bosun Lawal (Stoke City), Liam Scales (Celtic), Ryan Manning (Southampton).
Midfielders: Josh Cullen (Burnley), Jason Knight (Bristol City), Jack Taylor (Ipswich Town), Killian Phillips (St. Mirren).
Forwards: Evan Ferguson (AS Roma), Troy Parrott (AZ Alkmaar), Adam Idah (Celtic), Finn Azaz (Middlesbrough), Sammie Szmodics (Ipswich Town), Chiedozie Ogbene (Ipswich Town), Kasey McAteer (Ipswich Town), Mikey Johnston (West Bromwich Albion).

Senzační postup volejbalistů. Česká jednadvacítka bude na MS hrát o medaile
FotogalerieČeši začali skvěle, dokázali favorita zatlačit servisem, poradili si i s polským blokem a když začal Černý za koncovou čarou rozdávat esa, bylo z toho nadějné vedení 19:10. Mladí reprezentanti hráli sebevědomě a s obrovskou chutí, nutili soupeře k chybám a první dějství ovládli nečekaně rychle za devatenáct minut.Po změně stran ale Poláci dokázali přitvrdit ve hře i zpřesnit příjem. V útoku se probudil talentovaný Gajek, vedle něj se chytil střídající Kiedos a Češi měli potíže. Do koncovky druhého setu šli s pětibodovým mankem. O podání i dobrou hru na síti se opírající soupeř už neumožnil jeho smazání.Pokračování zápasu nabízelo přetahovanou o každý míč, teprve při Černého podání se povedl jednadvacítce trhák ve skóre a do koncovky třetí části šla za stavu 21:18. V důležitých okamžicích zaúřadoval univerzál Brichta, Češi si pomohli také blokem a proměnili druhý setbol.Nabuzení reprezentanti si pak dovolili riskovat, při servisu kapitána Pastrňáka se dostali do vedení 20:17.

Can Eze complete redemption arc and push Arsenal to PL title?
Eberechi Eze's journey to becoming an Arsenal player was one that began with the tears of a 13-year-old and one that culminated in an on-pitch unveiling at the Emirates. For a sum of £67.5m, Arsenal signed a player they let go from their academy over a decade ago. When he found out he would be released by Arsenal as a youngster, Eze recalls having to train while crying throughout the session as his dream of representing the Gunners was crushed. Having sat down with Eze in May, after his FA Cup heroics clinched Crystal Palace's first major honour, it was clear that faith and a family-borne resilience kept him going.It wasn't the only setback a young Eze had to face. Fulham, Reading, and Millwall also overlooked him, unable to unlock and foresee the talents of the now England international as […]
Hokejistky chtějí napravit úvodní prohru. Tentokrát je čeká domácí Švýcarsko
Se Švýcarkami se Češky utkaly na dubnovém mistrovství světa v Českých Budějovicích hned dvakrát, v základní skupině z toho byla výhra 3:0 a ve čtvrtfinále pak 7:0, a tak je jasné, že domácí hráčky budou mít o motivaci postaráno. Češky ale chtějí napravit čtvrteční dojem.„Musíme hrát lépe s pukem. Dnes jsme nezpracovali spoustu jednoduchých přihrávek, sami jsme si je nepřesně dávali. A taky jsme měli hodně šancí, které skončily mimo branku. Tyhle detaily potřebujeme změnit,“ říkal asistent trenérky Dušan Andrašovský.Do branky tentokrát nejspíš nastoupí Klára Peslarová, která ale i proti Finsku odchytala dvě minuty. To když Michaele Hesové vypadl u brusle nůž, a tak musela Peslarová na chvíli zaskočit.
