Liverpool defender Conor Bradley will return for Northern Ireland’s friendlies against Denmark and Iceland next month.
Michael O’Neill’s side will travel to Copenhagen on 7 June before hosting Iceland in Belfast three days later in what are the last games before the 2026 World Cup qualifiers begin in September.
Bradley missed the friendlies in March against Switzerland and Sweden with a hamstring injury, but returned for Liverpool in the closing stages of their title-winning Premier League campaign before penning a new long-term deal at Anfield.
Sunderland duo Dan Ballard and Trai Hume, who will be involved in the Championship play-off final this weekend, are also back in the squad after injuries in March, the latter playing against Switzerland but not Sweden.
Preston North End midfielder Ali McCann and Huddersfield Town striker Dion Charles return to the panel.
However, Jordan Thompson, Ciaron Brown, Eoin Toal and Josh Magennis miss out on the 26-man squad through injuries.
Motherwell defender Kofi Balmer and Rangers winger Ross McCausland are also absent.
“We have one or two still missing from injury,” said O’Neill.
“We could be a little bit stronger, if I’m honest, but it’s nice at this minute in time, and hopefully we get through the weekend because that will be important as well with the play-off games, that we’ll be a wee bit stronger than we were in March.”
In March, Northern Ireland drew 1-1 with Switzerland before falling to a 5-1 loss to Sweden.
O’Neill’s side begin their bid to qualify for next year’s World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico with an away game against Luxembourg on 4 September before travelling to four-time world champions Germany three days later.
