Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher is called up by Republic of Ireland for World Cup qualifiers as he works his way back to fitness from abdominal tear

Liverpool's Caoimhin Kelleher has been named in the Republic of Ireland squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Serbia and Luxembourg as manager Stephen Kenny faces up to a goalkeeping crisis.

Kelleher is working his way back from an abdominal tear but, with number one Darren Randolph having already been ruled out, the 22-year-old could be in line for a senior debut in Belgrade should he be declared fit.

He is one of four keepers named in a 29-man squad along with the uncapped Gavin Bazunu, currently on loan at Rochdale from Manchester City, Bournemouth's Mark Travers and Kieran O'Hara of Burton.
