Leeds United Trio Called Up To Wales Squad

Ampadu, James and Rodon set for crucial double header

Leeds United trio Dan James, Ethan Ampadu and Joe Rodon have been named in Rob Page's latest squad, for Wales' November fixtures against Armenia and Türkiye.

Wales will hope to build on last month’s 2-1 win against the group’s top seeds Croatia when they travel to Yerevan to face Armenia (Saturday 18 November), where an away win would set up a potential grand finale at a sold-out Cardiff City Stadium against the already qualified Türkiye (Tuesday 21 November).

Two wins will guarantee the Red Dragon's qualification to the EURO 2024 finals in Germany next summer. 

All three players have impressed for the Whites this season, Dan James racking up three goals and four assists in his 13 league appearances.

Joe Rodon, on loan from Tottenham, has also formed a formidable defensive partnership with Pascal Struijk, helping keep five clean sheets across the 12 games he has featured in.

Playing every minute of every game this season, Ethan Ampadu has also garnered the praise of Leeds United fans since his summer move from Chelsea, putting in several man of the match performances.

Wales National Team: 

Wayne Hennessey (Nottingham Forest), Danny Ward (Leicester City), Tom King (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Ben Davies (Tottenham Hotspur), Joe Rodon (Leeds United), Tom Lockyer (Luton Town), Chris Mepham (AFC Bournemouth), Ben Cabango (Swansea City), Neco Williams (Nottingham Forest), Connor Roberts (Burnley), Niall Huggins (Sunderland), Ethan Ampadu (Leeds United), Josh Sheehan (Bolton Wanderers), Jordan James (Birmingham City), Joe Morrell (Portsmouth), Harry Wilson (Fulham), David Brooks (AFC Bournemouth), Dan James (Leeds United), Nathan Broadhead (Ipswich Town), Liam Cullen (Swansea City), Brennan Johnson (Tottenham Hotspur), Kieffer Moore (AFC Bournemouth), Tom Bradshaw (Millwall)
