Sheffield Wednesday winger Kieran Morrison expressed his desire to play at Windsor Park after earning the trust of Northern Ireland manager Michael O'Neill. Morrison made his competitive international debut on the right wing in Friday's 3-0 UEFA Nations League victory against Ukraine, providing an assist for Isaac Price's header after his corner previously led to Ciaron Brown's opening goal.

The 19-year-old Liverpool loanee hopes to retain his starting place when Northern Ireland host Georgia on Monday evening in Belfast. Northern Ireland remain unbeaten in their Nations League campaign, collecting seven points from their opening three fixtures following a 1-0 win over Georgia and a 0-0 draw against Hungary.
