Portsmouth striker Aruna Dindane was named in the Ivory Coast squad today following his on-form performances for the Blues this month.
Dindane netted a hat-trick against Wigan to open his Premier League account a week ago, with Pompey fans expecting more goals from Didier Drogba's international strike partner.
The striker was taken off in the 58th minute at the weekend, but seems to be fighting fit again and ready to boost Pompey up the table.
In other international news, David James has been left out of the England squad and the two Algerians Hassan Yebda and Nadir Belhadj are both expected to be called up for their final World Cup qualifier against Egypt on Saturday, although Yebda picked up a calf injury during the Blackburn game at the weekend and may cast doubts.
England coach Fabio Capello left Jamo out of his preliminary squad to face Brazil after stating "He's playing well but his problem is he can't train for two days after each game so it's one problem we have to decide."
PLAY UP POMPEY
