Martin O'Neill has selected a 26-man squad for the Republic of Ireland's international friendly games against France (Monday, May 28) and United States (Saturday, June 2). There are first senior call-ups for goalkeepers Shane Supple and Conor O'Malley, midfielder Shaun Williams, and forward Graham Burke. The trio of O'Malley, Williams and Burke featured for an Ireland XI in last week's testimonial match against Celtic. Both Supple and Burke will balance training and matches with their respective clubs - Bohemians and Shamrock Rovers - with international duty. Defender John O'Shea will link up with the squad ahead of the USA game.
