A squad of 24 players has been selected by the Ireland WNT for their Euro 2025 play-off against Wales.
Ireland are aiming to qualify for the Women’s European Championships for the first time and have made it to the second round following a 9-0 aggregate victory over Georgia in the first round.
But boss Eileen Gleeson is unable to call on Louise Quinn (hip), Ellen Molloy (hamstring), Lucy Quinn (ankle), Jamie Finn (knee) or Jess Ziu (knee), but there are returns for Megan Campbell and Ruesha Littlejohn after they both missed the two games against Georgia.
Over 15,000 tickets have already been sold for the Second Leg fixture in Aviva Stadium with supporters encouraged to secure their seat as Ireland look to qualify for next summer’s tournament in front of a large home crowd.
