The squad sees a first call up for Jack Byrne and Derrick Williams under Kenny.

The squad will assemble in Dublin on Sunday and train at the FAI’s National Training Centre in Abbotstown before flying to Slovakia on Tuesday.

Kenny will be hoping for more positive results in October. Ireland drew his opening match as manager away to Bulgaria, before losing 1-0 to Finland a few days later in Dublin.
