He was with the team for their 0-0 friendly against Spain, but did not play in the 1-1 draw against Netherlands.
“We’ve been in communication with Ipswich and I spoke to Omari and just felt the best thing to do was go back,” Futcher said following tonight's game.
“He wanted to stay a bit longer but we felt it was best he went back. So, Omari should be OK - hopefully.”
He had previously played for the Jamaican team at senior level, but only in friendly matches.
