Jamie Donley Receives First Call-Up to Northern Ireland Squad
Jamie Donley, a promising young talent from Tottenham Hotspur, has been called up to the Northern Ireland senior squad for the first time. The 19-year-old forward's inclusion marks a significant step in his burgeoning career, as he joins the team for upcoming friendlies against Scotland and Georgia.
Donley's call-up comes as a replacement for Derry City's Cameron Dummigan, who has been ruled out due to injury. The young striker's performance at Leyton Orient, where he is currently on loan, has evidently caught the eye of Northern Ireland manager Michael O'Neill. Donley has been in fine form, contributing significantly to Leyton Orient's campaign in League Two.
The squad also sees the return of Daniel Ballard, who missed the last international window due to injury. The inclusion of experienced players alongside fresh talents like Donley underscores O'Neill's strategy to blend youth with experience as Northern Ireland prepares for future challenges.
