Republic of Ireland exclude Séamus Coleman and Nathan Collins from the squad for upcoming UEFA Nations League fixtures. Multiple outlets report that neither player is named for the opening matches.
RTE says Collins is an injury doubt and notes Coleman is also not included. Highland Radio adds further context, reporting that Collins picks up a calf injury at club level with Brentford and misses the team’s last two games, while Coleman has been without a club since leaving Everton at the end of the season. Belfast Telegraph likewise frames the development as both players being left out.
Across the reports, the main emphasis is on availability: injury concerns for Collins and current club status for Coleman. The outlets do not present contrasting claims about the decision, instead focusing on different details explaining why both players are unavailable.
