13 Brentford have been called up for their respective nations this international break.

Nine players have been selected for senior action, while four young Bees are away with their nations’ youth teams.

Take a look at the full list of players and their upcoming fixtures below.


Nathan Collins - Republic of Ireland

Despite losing four of their five games in an eight-match group, Nathan Collins' Republic of Ireland can still finish runners-up behind France - but it would require results to go their way.

Republic of Ireland would also need to win their next two matches against Greece (home) and Gibraltar (away) on Friday 13 October (7.45pm) and Monday 16 October (7.45pm) respectively.

They would also need to beat the Netherlands in November and require a serious collapse from Ronald Koeman’s Dutch side, as well as a stumble from Greece. 

Mathias Jensen and Christian Nørgaard - Denmark

Mathias Jensen and Christian Nørgaard could end the international break on top of their Euro 2024 group, overtaking Slovenia in Group H.

The Denmark duo first take on Kazakhstan at Parken in Copenhagen on Saturday 14 October (7.45pm).

They then face pointless San Marino in an away game on Tuesday 17 October, also at 7.45pm.

Thomas Strakosha - Albania

Thomas Strakosha's Albania are already top of Group E in Euro 2024 qualifying, and will be hoping for a win over Czechia at home on Thursday 12 October (7.45pm) to cement their spot at the summit.

The goalkeeper made his Premier League debut last week, as the Bees narrowly lost to Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Aaron Hickey - Scotland

Aaron Hickey's Scotland are also flying high at the top of their pool, and even a defeat away at second-placed Spain on Thursday 12 October (7.45pm) won't see them shifted from first place.

A win or draw in Seville on Thursday will see them book their place in Germany for next summer's tournament.

They then face another European giant in France in a friendly on Tuesday 17 October, which is an 8pm kick-off at Stade Pierre-Mauroy.

Kristoffer Ajer - Norway

In the same pool, Norway currently sit third in Group A and face two stern tests over the next week.

Kristoffer Ajer, alongside Manchester City's Erling Haaland and Arsenal's Martin Ødegaard, will face bottom-placed Cyprus on Thursday 12 October, 7.45pm.

Then, it's a crucial clash against Spain on Sunday 15 October (7.45pm), which could see Norway leapfrog the Spaniards into a qualification spot.

Bryan Mbeumo - Cameroon

Bryan Mbeumo's Cameroon have two friendlies this international break, after their qualification for Africa Cup of Nations last month.

First, they take on Russia in a friendly in Moscow on Thursday 12 October at 5pm, before an all-African clash against Senegal on Monday 16 October (7.30pm).

Frank Onyeka - Nigeria

It's also a pair of friendlies for Frank Onyeka and Nigeria, who take on both Saudi Arabia (Friday 13 October, 5pm) and Mozambique (Monday 16 October, 4pm) in Portugal.

Like Mbeumo, Onyeka helped his country to AFCON qualification last month.

Saman Ghoddos - Iran

Saman Ghoddos's Iran have just the one game this international break, as they face Jordan at the Amman International Stadium.

The friendly will take place on Friday 13 October. Kick-off is 7pm.

Matt Cox - England Under-21s

Matt Cox, on loan at League One side Bristol Rovers, has received his first England Under-21 call-up.

The goalkeeper, who has represented the Young Lions at U17, U19 and U20 level, will be part of Lee Carsley's squad for the early games in their U21 Euro 2025 qualifying campaign.

This international break, they take on Serbia Under-21s (Thursday 12 October, 7.45pm) and Ukraine Under-21s (Monday 16 October, 5.30pm).

Michael Olakigbe - England Men's Elite League squad

Formerly known as the England Under-20 squad, Olakigbe has been called up to the England Men's Elite League squad for the upcoming international break.

The winger could feature for the Young Lions in friendlies away against Romania Under-20s and at home (Stadium MK) against Portugal Under-20s.

Those games are on Thursday 12 October at 4pm and Tuesday 17th October at 7pm, respectively.

Yehor Yarmoliuk - Ukraine Under-21s

Yehor Yarmoliuk could face Bees team-mate Matt Cox when Ukraine Under-21s take on England Under-21s on Monday 16 October, 5.30pm.

Like England, Ukraine won their first qualifying game and, before facing the Young Lions, will take on Luxembourg U21s in their other U21 Euro 2025 qualifying clash on Thursday 12 October, 6.30pm.

Fin Stevens - Wales Under-21s

Stevens, who is currently plying his trade on loan at League One Oxford United, is again part of the Wales Under-21s squad this international break.

Also in U21 Euro 2025 qualifying action, Stevens is in the squad to take on Czechia Under-21s on Friday 13 October, 5pm.
