Wright wants to follow in Liam Miller’s footsteps

Ovens native Tyreik Wright is ready for the heat — and the heat of battle — in Yerevan, as Ireland’s U19s begin the final countdown for the European Championship Finals in Armenia, with Tom Mohan’s side set to play their first group game, against Norway, on Monday.

“It’s a huge honour to be picked for my country again and to represent Ireland at the European Championships,” says the Aston Villa winger.
