Coleman won’t feature in Austria clash

SEAMUS Coleman will not feature in Saturday’s National League clash with Austria.

However, Republic of Ireland manager Hiermer Hallgrímsson has not ruled out the possibility of the Killybegs man featuring against Kosovo on Tuesday.

Coleman has been without a club since leaving Everton in the summer.

The 38-year-old is involved in the Ireland camp in a ‘hybrid’ role.

He has been working with the coaches and has also been training with the group.

However, he is not part of the 24-man squad for the clash with Austria in Linz.

“No, we didn’t expect to include Seamus in the squad today,” said Hallgrímsson.

“On Tuesday (against Kosovo) we don’t know the situation. We can maybe answer that after this game.

“We have five players on a yellow so we don’t know how many we will have in the squad. We might need to call in players.”
