DUBLIN (Reuters) - Jonathan Sexton was named in the Ireland squad for next weekend's Six Nations game against Italy despite his club's belief that he could be sidelined for up to six weeks, while winger Simon Zebo is also back in contention.

Flyhalf Sexton returned to Racing Metro with his thumb in a splint this week following Ireland bruising 13-10 loss to England and the Parisian club said he would out of action for 10 days to six weeks.
