    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">A TOTAL of 12 Celts will be aiming for victory with their national sides over the course of the coming week, with Darren O?Dea receiving his first full call-up to the Republic of Ireland squad.

    The 20-year-old centre-back, who was a contender for the man-of-the-match award during Celtic?s narrow defeat to AC Milan in this season?s Champions League, will be joined in Steve Staunton?s squad by Celtic team-mate Aiden McGeady.

    Polish duo Artur Boruc and Maciej Zurawski will also be aiming to help their national team qualify for the 2008 European Championships and are expected to feature in the forthcoming games against Azerbaijan and Armenia.

    Meanwhile, Evander Sno has received a call-up to the Dutch Under-21 side, while Shunsuke Nakamura this week joined up with the Japan squad.

    Scotland will take the biggest group of Celts, with Stephen McManus, Steven Pressley, Gary Caldwell, Paul Hartley and Craig Beattie all having received call-ups for the vital qualifiers against Georgia and Italy.</div>
