Saints midfielder Steven Davis has been ruled out of Northern Ireland's Euro 2016 qualifier against Romania by a hamstring injury, the Irish Football Association has announced.

Davis was forced off just before half time as Saints defeated Leicester 2-0 at St Mary's at the weekend.

Davis reported for international duty but it has now been agreed that he will return to Staplewood for treatment in a bid to get him ready to face Aston Villa when Saints resume Premier League action on Monday, November 24.
