Adam Bogdan and Lee Chung-Yong are likely to see action during the international break, after earning call-ups to their respective sides.

Bogdan has been named in the Hungary squad for World Cup qualifiers against Netherlands and Andorra, with the Wanderers goalkeeper having a real opportunity to secure a place in next summer's finals.

Hungary currently occupy second place in UEFA's Group D, but are just one point clear of chasing duo Turkey and Romania. A runners-up spot would almost certainly secure a play-off place for his country, although a trip to group winners Netherlands will be crucial to their hopes of qualification.

Elsewhere, Chung-Yong is set to earn his 49th and 50th caps for South Korea as they face both Mali and Brazil in friendlies. The Koreans have already secured a place in next summer's tournament and are using the break to experiment with their squad.

Craig Davies has been placed on stand-by for Wales' qualifiers against Macedonia and Belgium, respectively, while Chris Lester is on stand-by for the Northern Irish under-21 side, and Cian Bolger and Conor Wilkinson are on the list for the Republic's under-21 team.
