Brighton forward Aaron Connolly has been left out of the Republic of Ireland squad for their upcoming World Cup Qualifiers.

The Irish are taking on Portugal and Luxembourg during the upcoming international break.

However, Connolly will not be with the team for those games.

Brighton's Jayson Molumby, who is on loan with West Bromwich Albion this season, does get a call up.

Shane Duffy is another who is also in the squad, as the Irish aim to gain pride and avoid finishing fourth or fifth in their group of five teams.

Ireland have five points from six qualifiers, with Serbia and Portugal on 17 and 16 points in their group respectively.
