Norwich City defender Andrew Omobamidele has been ruled out of the Scotland and Armenia matches.
The 20-year old defender sustained a groin injury in the 1-1 draw against West Bromwich Albion and has been replaced in the squad by Aberdeen defender Liam Scales.
The Norwich defender's last cap for Ireland came in against Luxembourg in November 2021.
