Aiden McGeady fit for Poland showdown

The Republic of Ireland have been handed a huge boost ahead of their crucial match against Poland on Sunday week after Roberto Martinez confirmed Aiden McGeady has returned to full fitness.

The Everton winger has been sidelined since suffering a knee injury in training at the beginning of February but the Blues boss stated yesterday he is now available for selection.

“Aiden McGeady should be fit and available to be in the squad which is a huge boost because the reality is we missed him,” Martinez admitted.
