Manchester United starlet Robbie Brady is thrilled with his call-up to the senior Republic of Ireland squad.
Brady won the call after scoring for the U21s last week.
"I got a few goals for the under-21s and I think that's what put my name about," Brady told the Irish Times. "Now, I'm delighted I'm here. I was getting ready for the flight to Italy (with Noel King's squad) when they told me I'd got called up. Hopefully, come Tuesday, if I get a chance I'll be able to show what I'm about."
