Ireland manager Stephen Kenny has moved to replace Brighton and Hove Albion striker Evan Ferguson, who pulled out of the squad earlier in the week due to injury, and Preston North End striker Will Keane, who suffered an injury in last night's defeat to France and has returned home.
Armstrong, who has scored one goal in five league appearances for QPR this season, has been promoted from the Ireland U-21 squad ahead of their games against Turkey and San Marino.
Afolabi has been in impressive form for Bohemians this season, scoring 11 goals in 27 matches, and links up with the squad ahead of Sunday's UEFA EURO 2024 qualifier against the Netherlands at the Aviva Stadium.
Both players reported to the senior camp today and trained with the group at FAI HQ, Abbotstown.
