Tony Mowbray says Northern Ireland's regular right-back must be 'some player' to keep Trai Hume out of the side.
Sunderland boss Mowbray has been hugely impressed with 21-year-old Hume since he broke into the team at the turn of the year and has gone on to become one of the Black Cats' most consistent performers.
Hume made his senior international debut in March last year against Hungary in a friendly and, while he was in the most recent squad last month, he did not feature in either of their Euro 2024 qualifiers against San Marino and Finland.
