Manchester United centre-back Paddy McNair welcomes his inclusion in the Northern Ireland senior squad for the first time.

Paddy McNair has expressed his delight at having been included in the Northern Ireland senior squad for the first time.

The 19-year-old was tipped to be named in Michael O'Neill's selection for last month's round of international matches, but he was sidelined by a hamstring injury.

However, the Manchester United defender has now returned to fitness and he could make his debut in a Euro 2016 qualifier against Romania next week.

"It's really good. When I was growing up, I always aimed to play for my country. Obviously, as I've been playing for United, one of the biggest clubs in the world, I did hope I would receive the call," he told the club's official website.

"I'm really happy to get called up. I could have been involved last month for the Faroe Islands and Greece games, so it's great I've been recalled to join the squad for Romania."

Centre-back McNair has made three appearances for United this season.
