Seamus Coleman has been chosen for the Republic of Ireland squad for the first time since he broke his leg in a World Cup qualifier against Wales last year.

Martin O'Neill has also selected Greg Cunningham, Alan Judge, and Sean Maguire in his 30-man squad for the Friendly against Turkey on Friday, March 23 in Antalya.

There are first senior call-ups for goalkeeper Kieran O'Hara, defenders Declan Rice, Darragh Lenihan, Derrick Williams and Enda Stevens.

Both O'Hara and Rice had previously trained with the squad but were never included in a match-day squad.

Also, O'Hara and Rice will also be available for the Ireland U21s in the European Championship qualifier against Azerbaijan on Tuesday, March 27 in Tallaght Stadium.

Ireland have a busy year with friendlies against the United States, France, Poland and Northern Ireland, as well as UEFA Nations League games with Denmark and Wales.
