Aaron Ramsey remains as Wales captain after new manager Craig Bellamy announced his squad for upcoming Nations League fixtures against Turkey and Montenegro.

Cardiff City star Ramsey, who was born in Caerphilly, took over as Wales captain following Gareth Bale’s retirement in 2023.

The 33-year-old was appointed skipper by Rob Page, who left his role as Wales manager this summer, with former national team captain Bellamy taking over the reigns.

Wales face Turkey at Cardiff City Stadium on Friday September 6 in what will be Bellamy’s first game as manager, before taking on Montenegro away on Monday September 9.
