Steven Davis leaves Northern Ireland camp as Rangers star drops out for 'personal reasons'

Rangers star Steven Davis has left the Northern Ireland camp for 'personal reasons'.

The IFA announced the midfielder will miss the UEFA Nations League game against Romania in a short statement.

Davis became the record caps holder for Northern Ireland during the last international break and added a further two during this campaign.

But he won’t add another on Wednesday night after leaving the camp.

A statement from Northern Ireland said: "Northern Ireland senior men’s captain Steven Davis has left the squad for personal reasons.


"The record caps holder will miss tomorrow’s UEFA Nations League game versus Romania at the National Football Stadium at Windsor Park."

Davis' absence from the Northern Ireland squad could now make him a doubt for Rangers' game against Aberdeen on Sunday.

Steven Gerrard's men take on the Pittodrie side at Ibrox in a lunchtime kick-off but Davis could be absent.

The Northern Ireland captain has been a mainstay in the Rangers team this season after returning from injury but will rightly be focusing on his personal issues in the coming days.
