Out of action...
TalkSport Radio - Emil Martinez has been banned by FIFA for two international matches because he previously broke the Covid quarantine rules in 2021. The Brazil v Argentina World Cup Qualifier game will be replayed, although both teams have already qualified for the final stages.

Upcoming international break...

Call-ups for MANNING (Rep. Ireland), RODAK (Slovakia) , WISEMAN (Gibraltar) , JOZEFZOON (Suriname), AJAYI (Nigeria) and VAULKS (Wales) have been confirmed, but K. MOORE (Wales) is out injured (broken bone in foot). VUCKIC was not in the named Slovenian squad . E. MARTINEZ (Argentina) is suspended for breaking Covid regulations, and will not be playing in this international break.

Jamaica can no longer qualify for the World Cup finals, and it sounds like they are planning to complete their remaining fixtures with mainly locallly-based players (according to Radio Jamaica) to save on the costs,. Update from JFF official website (22/03/22) - no Millers/ex-Millers have been selected.

I just looked up their 'head coach' and I can't say I've heard of him but he seems very negative!

FIFA have ruled that the Brazil v Argentina abandoned World Cup Qualifier game has to be replayed in September, even though both teams have already qualified. I think that E. Martinez has served his suspension now.

Crackers isn't it. could understand if one or neither hadn't qualified and it would make a difference.
 
Might be to do with the FIFA ranking points? They probably need proper match results to put into the computer, and not just leave "blanks".
Plus probably television broadcasting rights re replaying of abandoned matches.

BBC Football website - Wales have some Nations League games and a World Cup Qualifier coming up 1st-14th June. Kieffer Moore is in the squad, no Will Vaulks though.

Slovakia, Slovenia, Rep. Ireland, Suriname, Jamaica, Gibraltar and Nigeria also have scheduled matches at roughly that time.

Ryan Manning (now at Swansea City) named in Rep. Ireland squad today , along with Chieo.
Semi Ajayi was named in the Nigeria squad a couple of weeks ago.

Haven't found any information re Vuckic, Rodak, Jozefzoon, Wiseman, or E. Martinez yet.... or information on Jamaica squad, who have a warm-up game tonight.

Friendly "warm-up" game (1745 k.o.)
Catalonia v Jamaica
(Harding and Tilt not in the squad).

TURGOTT unused sub
CLARKE-HARRIS not booked, subbed 63 mins
HT : 4-0
FT : 6-0

Not sure about the official status (if any) of the match, but I think Catalonia changed their whole team for the second half!

Scott Wiseman named in the Gibraltar squad. Next game on 2nd June. Emil Martinez is in the Argentina squad which faces Italy on 1st June. Marek Rodak is in the Slovakia squad and Florian Jozefzoon is in the Suriname squad too. Doesn't look like Haris Vuckic is in the Slovenia squad, but he has been a last minute replacement due to injuries on previous occasions.

Think that's a total of nine. (Plus four current Millers).
