Trapattoni in discussion with Marco Tardelli
The squad sees the return of Manchester City goalkeeper Shay Given from injury and also the inclusion of eleven players who took part in Trapattoni's training camp in May.
The Italian believes that allowing The Boys in Green to pit their wits against Diego Maradonna's men, who crashed out in the quarter final of this summer's World Cup, will prepare them for the team's crucial European Championship qualifiers against Armenia and Andorra in September.
Squad in full:
Goalkeepers: Shay Given; Keiren Westwood, Joe Murphy
Defenders: John O’Shea; Richard Dunne, Sean St Ledger, Greg Cunningham, Kevin Foley, Marc Wilson, Stephen Kelly, Paul McShane, Darren O’Dea, Kevin Kilbane
Midfielders: Keith Andrews; Glenn Whelan, Darron Gibson, Paul Green, Liam Lawrence, Aiden McGeady, Andy Keogh, Damien Duff, Keith Fahey, Keith Treacy
Forwards: Cillian Sheridan, Robbie Keane, Kevin Doyle, Caleb Folan, Shane Long
