Waterford's Lee O'Connor has received his first senior international call up.
The Celtic full-back has been named in Republic of Ireland manager Mick McCarthy's squad ahead of this month's Euro 2020 qualifier with Denmark and the friendly with New Zealand.
O'Connor is expected to feature in the friendly game.
Ciaran Clark and Robbie Brady also make the cut for the panel, as does Tottenham's teenage striker Troy Parrott.
Manager Mick McCarthy said: "The benefit of the friendly before the competitive game is that it allows me to try out a few things and give match time to players who need it.
"With Lee suspended for the first of the two Under-21 matches, this is the perfect opportunity to have a look at him in the friendly, introduce him to senior international football and see how he gets on. I’ve been impressed with him for the 21s and I know how important he is to them for that Sweden game so this is a win-win for all concerned."
