West Ham United's Callum Marshall and on-loan Norwich City left-back Jamal Lewis are back in Northern Ireland's squad for their upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers.

There is no spot however for Blackpool striker Shayne Lavery, Oxford United defender Ciaron Brown or Portsmouth winger Gavin Whyte.

All of those players have only recently returned from injuries.

Michael O'Neill's side face two Group H home qualifiers later this month at Windsor Park against bottom side San Marino on October 14, followed by Slovenia three days later.

The team have three points from their opening six matches.
