Republic of Ireland interim manager Noel King has been forced to make two changes to his squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Germany and Kazakhstan after the withdrawal of Jon Walters and Kieren Westwood through injury .
Stoke City's Walters was assessed at his club on Sunday after being substituted in the 70th minute with a groin injury in his side's 1-0 game defeat away to Fulham on Saturday. His place in the 23-man squad goes to Leeds United midfielder Paul Green, who had been on standby.
King lost his second goalkeeper in the space of 24 hours after Westwood joined Darren Randolph on the sidelines.
The Sunderland stopper will remain at his club to receive medical treatment during the international window and will be replaced by Stephen Henderson, who is on loan with Bournemouth from West Ham.
Henderson was in action on Saturday against Millwall, where he saw two goals go past him in the first 10 minutes. Bournemouth went on to win the game 5-2, with Irish number one David Forde on the receiving end in the Millwall goal.
King has also called up Newcastle United goalkeeper Rob Elliot for a first time to a senior squad as a replacement for Randolph.
