Town trio Nathan Broadhead, Wes Burns and Kieffer Moore have been named in the Wales squad for the Euro 2024 play-offs later this month.

The Welsh, who finished third in their group, take on Finland at the Cardiff City Stadium on Thursday 21st March.

Should they win that tie, they will face either Poland or Estonia five days later for a place in the finals in Germany next summer.

Moore has previously won 39 full caps, scoring 12 goals, Broadhead nine, netting twice, and Burns six without opening his international account.

They will join up with the squad following Town’s Championship game against Sheffield Wednesday at Portman Road on Saturday.

Striker Ali Al-Hamadi has asked not to be included in the Iraq squad for their games due to a minor injury he is carrying, while skipper Sam Morsy was left out of the Egypt party for their matches during the break.

Monkey_Blue added 10:35 - Mar 13 Bobble… I assume you are just posting something stupid to get attention? Why would three welsh players not want to play for wales in an effort to get to the Euros? Hopefully you know how ridiculous your comment is and will aim to do better in the future.

Europablue added 11:51 - Mar 13 That's the problem with having foreigners in your team. I respect that they want to represent their country, but I always prioritise ITFC over any nation, except maybe England. Whilst there is always a concern about potential burnout and injuries, you could say that a positive experience with the national team is good for ITFC. In general I have to be neutral on it, except that I don't appreciate losing players to the African and Asian tournaments during the season and I think that the value of the player should be reduced if you consider that they won't be available to play for you as much as a decent English player would be.

Monkey_Blue added 12:54 - Mar 13 Europablue… when you prioritise Ipswich over any other nation do they replace you in the national teams squads? You don’t have the choice to make they do and there are no consequences to your career or personal ambitions.

Europablue added 13:22 - Mar 13 Monkey_Blue I mean it as me personally. I am not saying what they should do. In fact, if I were them, I would absolutely play for my country! I like to see Wales do well, but I don't feel bad when they lose.

HopefulBlue69 added 16:30 - Mar 13 You could understand their desire to play for a real national team but let's be honest, it's only Wales and without Bale so what's the point really.... :)

Essexnblue added 19:20 - Mar 13 The worrying call up is Cameron Burgess as his travelling is off the chain. If he is called up then its Sydney next Thursday playing against Lebanon in the World Cup qualifiers and then off to Lebanon for the return the following Tuesday. Then its back playing for us on Good Friday, we all know what happened when he went to the asian championships, that almost put us into freefall, so this travelling will hurt us more than the 3 Welsh..

bobble added 03:33 - Mar 15 lets be realistic the euros are not as important as the world cup ,so the welsh 3 should stay but the aussie should go.....see its not that hard to apply sensible logic ....
