Clarets Keeper Starts Season With Northern Ireland

Clarets keeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell has been included in Northern Ireland’s squad for their up-coming Nations League ties against Romania and Norway.

Peacock-Farrell, who last week signed a new, extended contract at Turf Moor, is part of 26-man party named by new national team boss Ian Baraclough.

The Burnley man has been Northern Ireland’s first-choice keeper in recent games and has been capped 13 times by his country.

Northern Ireland are in League B Group 1 of the Nations League tournament, with Austria the fourth team in their group.

Baraclough’s side begin their campaign in Bucharest against Romania on Friday, 4 September before returning to Belfast to take on Norway at the National Football Stadium at Windsor Park on Monday, 7 September.
