Luton Town forwards Callum Marshall and Jamie Donley have been called up to the Northern Ireland squad for the upcoming Nations League matches. The pair are part of a 28-man group selected by manager Michael O'Neill for four games in Nations League B Group Two.
Marshall, a summer signing from West Ham United, has scored twice in his six appearances for the Hatters. The striker has earned 16 caps for his country, starting four times, but is still searching for his first international goal. Donley, who joined on loan from Tottenham Hotspur just before the deadline, has one goal in four outings for Luton and has netted twice in his 10 senior caps for Northern Ireland, including in a 1-1 draw with Wales in March.
"The pair are now part of a 28-man squad picked by manager Michael O'Neill for the four matches in Nations League B Group Two," O'Neill said. The schedule begins with an away trip to face Georgia in Tbilisi on Friday, September 25. Northern Ireland then host Hungary in Belfast on Monday, September 28, travel to face Ukraine in Slovakia on Friday, October 2, and finish at home against Georgia on Monday, October 5.
The call-ups come as Luton Town sit 12th in the League One table with eight points from six games. Their most recent result was a 2-1 defeat away to Stevenage, where Donley was not on the scoresheet but Mads Juel Andersen netted a late consolation.
For Northern Ireland, the squad shows nine changes from the group selected for recent friendlies against Guinea and France. Returning players include experienced figures like Bailey Peacock-Farrell, Daniel Ballard, and Paddy McNair. The full squad features players from across the English football pyramid, underlining O'Neill's blend of youth and experience.
