Paddy Kenny is in line for a shock recall for the Republic of Ireland when they play Macedonia in a Euro 2012 qualifying tie next month.
Shay Given will miss the game after the Manchester City goalkeeper sustained a shoulder injury.
Kenny, 32, made him,self ‘unavailable for selection’ in 2007 after winning seven caps to enable him to sort out personal problems.
Manager Giovanni Trapattoni’s other options are Keiren Westwood of Coventry and Scunthorpe’s Joe Murphy.
But Westwood’s form for Coventry has dipped this season while Murphy is involved in a battle to help Scunthorpe avoid relegation to League One.
In contrast Kenny has kept 17 clean sheets as Rangers push for promotion to the Premier League.
He has responded to being re-united with Warnock, his former Sheffield United manager, and with his personal problems, including a nine-month ban for taking a banned substance, behind him Kenny would welcome a return to the international stage.
