Ireland manager Martin O'Neill has named a 32-man squad for the upcoming friendly internationals.

Newcastle goalkeeper Rob Elliot, Celtic striker Anthony Stokes and Nottingham Forest attacker Simon Cox are among those included in Ireland manager O'Neill's squad for their series of summer matches.

Despite speculation, there is no room for Richard Stearman of Wolves, while Stephen Ireland has not returned to the fold.

"This is a provisional squad so by rules and regulation I can add and subtract as needs be. I wanted to deliberately see Stephen on his own and I would intend to do that. I wanted to wait until the season was finished," said O'Neill at the press conference, hinting that the Stoke midfielder could still be called up for the forthcoming matches.

But LA Galaxy forward Robbie Keane does return after missing the friendly defeat to Serbia.

The Boys in Green will play Turkey in the Aviva Stadium, Italy in London, Costa Rica in Philadelphia and Portugal in New Jersey .
