Middlesbrough defender Paddy McNair is a doubt for Northern Ireland’s forthcoming friendlies after injuring his foot in Saturday’s FA Cup clash with Chelsea.
The versatile 26-year-old, who has won 52 caps for his country, limped off 53 minutes into Saturday’s 2-0 quarter-final defeat at the Riverside Stadium.
He was accidentally trodden on by Boro keeper Joe Lumley and boss Chris Wilder fears he could be sidelined for “seven to 10 days”.
