The Cymru Men’s squad are back in action at home following last month’s three away matches against England, Republic of Ireland and Bulgaria, with yet another triple header during this international window.
A larger than usual squad has been announced to cope with the tight run of fixtures, with a first senior call-up for Newport County midfielder Josh Sheehan, having previously earned caps at Under 19 and Under 21 level.
Owain Fôn Williams returns to the squad alongside Newport County’s Tom King, with both Wayne Hennessey and Adam Davies out injured. The Dunfermline Athletic goalkeeper was part of the Euro 2016 squad and earns his first call up since 2017.
Gareth Bale also returns to the squad having been unavailable for last month’s matches due to injury. Tom Lawrence, Tom Lockyer and James Lawrence also return to the fold.
Cymru will first welcome the USA at Liberty Stadium on Thursday 12 November before the Nations League campaign resumes on Sunday 15 November against the Republic of Ireland at Cardiff City Stadium.
Cymru currently sit at the top of group 4 in League B, with Finland in second place and just a point behind. The battle between the top two teams will take place on Wednesday 18 November.
Rob Page will take charge of the team for the upcoming three matches, supported by Albert Stuivenberg.
