Debutant Burns Starts For Wales - Ipswich Town News

Town wing-back Wes Burns has been handed his Wales debut in this evening’s UEFA Nations League tie against Poland in Wroclaw (KO 5pm, live on S4C or Premier 1 HD).

Burns, 27, was a late call into the squad, which has been at a training camp in Portugal for the last week, the third time he has been selected for a senior party having previously been included in 2015 and 2016 without playing a game.

Also in the XI facing the Poles are former Town striker Kieffer Moore, ex-Blues loanee Jonny Williams and Ipswich-born Portsmouth midfielder Joe Morrell.

Blues centre-half Elkan Baggott, 19, was named on the bench for Indonesia for their friendly against Bangladesh in Bandung, which kicked-off at 2.30pm, and has come on to win his second cap at half-time with the scoreline 0-0.
