Chloe Mustaki added to Republic of Ireland squad


Chloe Mustaki has been called into the Republic of Ireland squad ahead of the Pinatar Cup.

The Shelbourne player - who can operate in defence or midfield - replaces Niamh Farrelly, who has been ruled out.

She picked up a knock while on club duty with Glasgow City.

Mustaki's call-up represents another milestone as she returns following a serious injury.

She sustained a cruciate ligament injury in March of 2020 but recovered to return to club action with Shelbourne last season.

Mustaki is uncapped at senior level, so is poised to make a first appearance should she feature at the tournament in Spain.

Ireland begin their campaign tomorrow (Wednesday) against Poland, before playing two more matches against yet-to-be-determined opposition.
