Jack Taylor called up to senior Republic of Ireland squad for the first time

Jack Taylor has today (November 12) received his first call up to the Republic of Ireland sqaud in place of the injured Jayson Molumby.

Stephen Kenny’s side travel to face Luxembourg on Sunday (November 14) at 7:45pm. It will be their final game in World Cup qualification. They can not advance to the play-off stage but can overtake their opponents with a win and finish third in the group.

Last night (November 11), the side got an impressive point after a 0-0 draw at home to table-topping Portugal.

Taylor has played 13 times for Posh in the Championship this season after overcoming injury troubles which bothered him throughout pre-season. Those injury issues have likely kept him out of previous squads, up until now.

Taylor has been capped seven times by the nation’s Under-21 side.
