Craig Bellamy has announced his squad for the first two games of World Cup Qualification. Despite not having star players like Harry Wilson and Ethan Ampadu available it still looks a selection that could get off to a great start next week.

Four Swansea City players and a number of ex academy players feature and the squad is below.

Cymru: Danny WARD (Leicester City), Karl DARLOW (Leeds United), Adam DAVIES (Sheffield United), Ben DAVIES (Tottenham Hotspur), Joe RODON (Leeds United), Chris MEPHAM (Sunderland- on loan from Bournemouth), Ben CABANGO (Swansea City), Connor ROBERTS (Burnley), Neco WILLIAMS (Nottingham Forest), Jay DASILVA (Coventry City), Tom LAWRENCE (Rangers), Joe ALLEN (Swansea City), Josh SHEEHAN (Bolton Wanderers), Jordan JAMES (Stade Rennais), Ollie COOPER (Swansea City), Kai ANDREWS (Motherwell- on loan from Coventry City), Sorba THOMAS (Nantes- on loan from Huddersfield Town), David BROOKS (Bournemouth), Kieffer MOORE (Sheffield United), Brennan JOHNSON (Tottenham Hotspur), Daniel JAMES (Leeds United), Liam CULLEN (Swansea City), Nathan BROADHEAD (Ipswich Town), Mark HARRIS (Oxford United), Lewis KOUMAS (Stoke City- on loan from Liverpool), Rabbi MATONDO (Hannover 96- on loan from Rangers).

Unfortunately for Welsh club football the Swans are the only club with participants in Bellamy’s squad. Cardiff City have no selections and it has to be said Wrexham and Newport County are playing at a level where the risk on certain players is just that. The first game comes against Kazakhstan next weekend (March 22nd)
