Steven Davis has given Saints a boost by choosing to stay in Southampton to help increase his fitness levels.
The 33-year-old midfielder had been expected to link up with Northern Ireland for their friendly international clash against North Korea on Saturday but with Davis being forced to miss our last five matches because of a hamstring problem, he decided against joining up with the squad in Belfast.
Michael O’Neill, Northern Ireland’s National Coach has confirmed that he will not feature.
Sky Sports have him saying.
‘It’s been a wee bit tricky. Davo is out. We have to be careful with the players given the time of year it is and the nature of the game.’
The news will be music to the ears of Saints fans as it means the club captain will now be focused on making a comeback as soon as possible. He should be ready for the important game against West Ham when the international break is over as he was back in training earlier this week.
This makes great reading for us Saints fans.
