Southampton forward Shane Long has handed Republic of Ireland a boost after taking part in full training earlier today.
The 31-year old striker was considered a doubt for ROI’s Nations League tie against Denmark on Saturday after picking up an ankle knock.
However, he has seemingly shaken the injury off, and will be ready to face the Danes at the weekend.
That will also be a positive for the Saints, with the South Coast club set to face AFC Bournemouth in the Premier League after the international break.
