Caolan Boyd-Munce is hoping for his first senior cap for Northern Ireland this week after being named in Michael O'Neill's squad for the international break.
The 24-year-old has been selected for the matches against Romania and Scotland and could line up alongside his cousin and Saints teammate Conor McMenamin who was also named in the squad.
The Saints midfielder has been in the Northern Ireland squad on four occasions but has yet to make his senior bow for his national side.
Speaking to the press last week, Caolan said: "My next step has to be to get my first cap.
"I think this is my fourth call-up but it’s the first one where I have been in from the start. The others I’ve been on stand-by.
I do feel ready for it. I feel comfortable with where I’m at. I’m understanding the game a lot more up here.
"I have come through the academy since I was 10 or 11 so to play for the senior team would be brilliant. I’ve been involved for 13 years. We’ll see what happens."
Caolan could also get his first taste of playing at Hampden as Northern Ireland take on Scotland on Tuesday 26th March.
I’d be getting booed left, right and centre and that would be from my team-mates watching! Under the lights at Hampden would be some experience."
