Ryan made his debut in April 1978, when he played in a 4-2 win against Turkey in a friendly at Lansdowne Road.〔().〕 His only goal for Ireland came over a year later at the same venue, but it was only a consolation effort as Ireland lost 3-1 to West Germany in a friendly. Ryan's last appearance in a green shirt came in 1984 when he played in a scoreless draw against Mexico at Dalymount Park. Also earned one cap for the Republic of Ireland U21 side. After his retirement from the professional game, Ryan bought and ran The Witch Inn in Lindfield, West Sussex, with his wife Simeon. He turned out regularly for The Witch in the Lewes Sunday League.
