Seamus Coleman also misses out, despite reports he would be included as he regains full fitness after a knee injury.
Parrott is recalled, having scored three goals in eight appearances on loan with Excelsior Rotterdam in the Dutch Eredivisie, with Liverpool goalkeeper Kelleher back in the fold after missing October’s qualifiers against Greece and Gibraltar due to injury.
McClean returns for his last camp; the Derryman is retiring from international football with the New Zealand friendly set to be his 103rd and final Ireland appearance.
