Kevin Doyle: 'Damien Duff won't make Republic of Ireland return'

Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Kevin Doyle has insisted that former Republic of Ireland teammate Damien Duff is very unlikely to come out of international retirement.

The 33-year-old Fulham winger called time on his international career after winning his 100th senior cap against Italy at Euro 2012.

"I think from what I have heard, Duffers is well and truly in the retired camp," said Doyle. "I think he wants to be left alone for a while."

Doyle will wear the captain's armband during tonight's friendly with Oman at Craven Cottage.
