Ireland U21 boss Jim Crawford wants to put Mipo Odubeko’s international future “to bed” as the West Ham United striker continues to stall on a decision.

The Tallaght-born forward last represented Ireland back in March 2019 in an U17 friendly but, even as his club career advanced to making first-team appearances, he remains stung at being dropped by Colin O’Brien for the Euro U17 finals two months later.
