Luton Defender Named In Welsh World Cup Squad

On a day where all the conversations have surrounded the future of our managerial team, at Kenilworth Road, there is a small piece of good news to bring you this evening.

Robert Page, the Wales manager, has named his 26-man squad for the forthcoming 2022 World Cup, in Qatar, and nestling among those selected is our very own Tom Lockyer.

Lockyer, on the back of some top-notch performances for Luton, has been drafted back into the Welsh squad to give Wales more defensive options.

I reckon Tom will be sat at home with a huge smile on his face and hoping that he will get the chance to face, USA, Iran and England in the opening group changes.

The full Welsh squad for the tournament that stars in 11 days is:

Goalkeepers – Wayne Hennessey (Nottingham Forest), Danny Ward (Leicester City), Adam Davies (Stoke City).

Defenders – Neco Williams (Nottingham Forest), Ben Davies (Tottenham Hotspur), Ben Cabango (Swansea City), Joe Rodon (Rennes, on loan from Tottenham Hotspur), Chris Mepham (Bournemouth), Ethan Ampadu (Spezia, on loan from Chelsea), Chris Gunter (AFC Wimbledon), Connor Roberts (Burnley), Tom Lockyer (Luton Town).

Midfielders – Aaron Ramsey (Nice), Joe Allen (Swansea City), Harry Wilson (Fulham), Joe Morrell (Portsmouth), Dylan Levitt (Dundee United), Rubin Colwill (Cardiff City), Jonny Williams (Swindon Town), Matthew Smith (Milton Keynes Dons), Sorba Thomas (Huddersfield Town).

Forwards – Gareth Bale (Los Angeles FC), Dan James (Fulham, on loan from Leeds United), Kieffer Moore (Bournemouth), Mark Harris (Cardiff City), Brennan Johnson (Nottingham Forest).

I’m sure you’ll join me in congratulating our Tom.
