What happened. Harry Wilson, Nathan Broadhead and Karl Darlow have all withdrawn from Craig Bellamy's Wales squad before their Nations League A campaign. Wilson had been a doubt with a quad problem, Broadhead was expected to miss out with a thigh issue, and first-choice goalkeeper Darlow has also pulled out.

• Wales called up uncapped David Cornell, Joe Taylor and Charlie Savage as replacements.
• Wales were already without defenders Joe Rodon and Dylan Lawlor, plus Rubin Colwill and Isaak Davies.
• Wales face Portugal in Lisbon on Thursday, then Denmark in Copenhagen next Sunday.

Wales must now cope without three key players as they step up to Nations League A, starting away to Portugal.
