Macken and Nolan on wanted list

MANCHESTER City striker Jon Macken and Bolton midfielder Kevin Nolan are still on the wanted list of Republic of Ireland boss Brian Kerr.

The duo played representative football for England at under-age level, but their parents and grandparents were born in this country.

FIFA have introduced a new rule that players who played for countries at under-age level, may still qualify for another nation at senior level. That's when it becomes complicated. The governing body of world football says that only those with dual passports can play for another country.
