is there anyone in Celtic eligible for Ireland as well?
The lad seems keen anyway going by his LinkedIn and Twitter:

Came across a keeper at Hannover u19 called Liam Tiernan. Born in Germany but ireland eligible.
Also Jack McGlynn has probably already been mentioned but he’s a 18 year old kid getting his game in the MLS. Currently playing for the US u20s but ireland eligible https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_McGlynn
Celtic's Irish contingent:
Liam Scales
James McCarthy
Mikey Johnston (Irish eligible, former Scotland u21)

Just saw he is actually from an nationalist background. His town is very unionist but his family arnt etc
He looks a fine footballer not sure right full will be his best position, was a box to box midfielder underage( just like trent) . I was watching morecambe v spurs and noticed Ryan mclougking who was vert similar in been nationalist at Liverpool and very highly regarded and playing for the north
If a cath guy from Ireland and Liverpool who ends up playing for the queen's team ...there is something rottem in....get into the fella's ear . you know how u r irish ....ethernal Renegades of the Empire
Or both teams unite somehow or the nationalist players go for Rep. Of.
Mon said he couldnt play for Ireland At his time
The talented Boyd-Munce is certainly a viable potentiall option, I think.
Any information on left-back Ryan (Francis Patrick) Galvin, born Kingston-on-Thames Jan 2001, with Wigan Athletic initially but Sheffield Wed for the last 30 months. Recently back with Wednesday after a successful loan spell at Gloucester City?
Jim Crawford already mentioned the FAI were interested in Bradley back in November, but I'll assume he's happy where he is given he's regularly been involved with them since making his debut.
Would take a massive hail mary bid from the FAI to convince the lad at the last minute having played three competitive games, and featured in two friendlies.
Can't see it happening. They are buying into this ClubNI thing, think it's Talent ID now, set up that actively supplements the coaching the players get at their junior clubs is helping them build a better future. These kids are now all friends and end up playing together for the under age set up for NI. They are also getting the majority of these kids deals in England and Scotland, so you can understand if there is a connection made. You've the likes of Declan Devine, Marty McCann, Jim Magilton working for them in the past. I think Neil McCafferty from Derry is working with them now.
Stan Flaherty (20, attacking midfielder) has just moved from Newcastle Utd to QPR on a contract to the end of the season. Stats for 2020/21: PL2 1,710 mins played, 7 goals, 3 assists.
Seems to have been inactive this season, maybe injured? Transfermarkt shows him as English and Irish.
Not sure if he has a thread or not but according to Crawford today, Taylor Gardner Hickman is a generation too far back to qualify for us. Seems the family weren't sure themselves & it came down to paperwork ( or lack of )
It has been done to death before I realise but how Irish can the guy possibly feel when the family link isn't even known within his family.
Find it odd not knowing where your grandparents were born? Was always confused about how Aldridge qualified via a great grand parent. My daughter is UK born but is an Irish citizen, her offspring will qualify via a grandparent, but if they become citizens before they become parents will their offspring be eligible for citizenship?
Aldridge was actually a grandparent afaik- it’s that his mother was adopted and her adoptive parents were irish but her birth parents weren’t. Going back a gen further he was irish through birth - but it was clarified that having an adoptive grandparent in those circumstances was sufficient
Actually maybe the was Cas - sorry
Here's some background on Aldridge. Definitely references a great grandparernt.
https://group.irishecho.com/2011/02/...-in-dispute-2/
Think Aldo had a grandparent that was Irish, but he said that he always had a huge affinity with Ireland. From knowing Liverpool the way I do, they don’t feel English at all and generally embrace their Irish roots which a strong majority of them have. I lived all over the UK and Liverpool was the only place I ever felt like home.
Separately Sonny Perkins, an up and comer with West Ham is eligible. If anyone has a contact in the FAI, would be great to let them know. He’s a current England youth international but could be worth asking him. His dad played with us.
CJ Egan-Reilly starting for Man City in the champions league tonight…
Eligible apparently
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CJ_Egan-Riley
Aldridge I believe qualified through a great grandparent but declared for us shortly before FIFA tightened the rules in the mid 1980s. Eligibility was a bit of a free for all before that, you just needed to be able to prove some lineage so great grandparents were fine. Once FIFA formalised it the line was drawn at grandparents and if Aldridge had tried to declare after that he would have been deemed ineligible.
Regarding your other query - your great grandchildren will be eligible for an Irish passport as long as your grandchildren formalise their Irish citizenship before they give birth to your great grandchildren. However (under current rules) your great grandchildren, although they would be Irish citizens, would not be eligible to play football for Ireland (unless they had an Irish parent or grandparent).
We're hardly short of keepers, but I notice that when Keiren Westwood became the 5th(!!) QPR keeper to be injured (in this case, during the warm up this p.m.), Rangers turned to a 20 year-old Murphy Mahoney :-) Must have an Irish grand-dad, surely?
Harry Halwax is there as well, but I think he's only on an academy contract

Very good player, very unlucky with injuries. Lots of talented wingers in 2003 - it's probably the position which it is most stacked, that combined with injuries and 2 years of no international football for his age group due to covid have probably halted Harkin's progress. Still, would be a real shame to lose him.
