Wales international Gareth Bale has admitted that last night's World Cup qualifier against Austria was a make-or-break game for his nation.

Chris Coleman's side saw group rivals Republic of Ireland drop points prior to their kickoff at the Principality Stadium, but they almost failed to capitalise against the visitors for much of the game.

Former Liverpool legend-turned-pundit Steve Nicol feels Manchester United would have a realistic chance of challenging for the Premier League title, should they secure the services of Gareth Bale from Real Madrid.

The Wales international has been heavily tipped for an Old Trafford move this summer, despite agent Jonathan Barnett branding the rumours as 'stupid' and 'ridiculous'.

Wales national team skipper Ashley Williams has named Chelsea youngster Ethan Ampadu as his replacement. The Everton centre half opines that the youngster has a bright future ahead of him in the Welsh set-up.

Williams says Ampadu can fit into his shoes when if retires from international duty. He says the player can become a regular for the national team. The 16-year old agreed terms with the defending league champs few weeks back, preferring a move to Stamford Bridge instead of the other top flight sides interested in his signature.

Everton boss Ronald Koeman is eyeing a surprise deal for West Ham United defender James Collins, who has less than a year left on his current contract.

The Wales international has provided quality backup at the heart of the Hammers backline, but he could be off the club's books during the summer.

Swansea City have completed the signing of young defender Cian Harries from League Two club Coventry City.

The 20-year-old has agreed a three-year contract with the Welsh club subject to international clearance. The Wales youth international managed 16 games for Coventry during the previous campaign as their poor league form relegated them to the fourth tier of English football.

Championship club Aston Villa are reportedly deemed frontrunners to sign Wales international Joe Ledley, who is out of contract following his release from Selhurst Park earlier in the month.

The Welshman enjoyed a three-year spell with the south London club in the Premier League, and he is now willing to drop down a division in order to prolong his professional career.

Wales head coach Chris Coleman is confident that his team can overturn a four point deficit in the final four games of their World Cup campaign in order to clinch an automatic qualification spot.

The Euro 2016 semi-finalists were held to a 1-1 draw at Belgrade as Aaron Ramsey’s opener was equalised by Aleksandar Mitrovic, just as he did in Cardiff last November.

Hull City manager Marco Silva is yet to determine his next move following the relegation of the club to the Sky Bet Championship.

The coach is expected to meet with the club’s owners for discussions as he declined to commit his future to the club.

City fell to a heavy defeat in the hands of Crystal Palace, confirming that their status would change next season after a fight to remain. The manager joined in January as he agreed to a six-month deal. There was an option to remain for another year but Silva might decline.

Wales manager Chris Coleman is reportedly planning to leave the national team if they lose the upcoming World Cup 2018 qualifier against Serbia.

The manager’s stock was at an all-time high exactly a year ago when he managed to get the national team to major success at the Euro 2016. However, Wales have been unable to sustain the success with the team struggling in the World Cup 2018 qualification group. The team has drawn the last four games without exception, and it has seen Wales dropped against Serbia and Republic of Ireland in the race to qualify for the World Cup.

The Welsh national football side is trying to secure their 2nd triumph for their 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification journey which has seen them drawing 4 matches and winning 1 match out of their 5 opening matches.

The latest qualification match of Wales saw them facing off with Republic of Ireland in a match that was played on March 24 the result was a goal-less as neither national side managed to score a single goal and they had to settle with 1 point from the match.
