Connor Roberts and Ben Cabango have both been named, as expected, in the Wales squad for the upcoming Euro 2020 championship.

Both names were included in the squad which was announced today ahead of the tournament which was postponed from last year but there was no place for Will Vaulks or Hal Robson-Kanu both of whom had missed out on the training camp in the Algarve.

Former Swans Joe Allen, Joe Rodon, Ben Davies and Dan James were also included in the squad.

Wales take on Switzerland in their opening group stage fixture of Euro 2020 on Saturday, June 12, they then face Turkey four days later before ending the group phase against Italy in Rome on Sunday, June 20.

Page’s side take on France in a warm-up fixture on Wednesday night before hosting Albania in front of 6,500 supporters at Cardiff City Stadium three days later in their final game prior to the Euros.

Uncapped Cardiff City youngster Rubin Colwill is the surprise inclusion in the 26-man squad having only made his debut in February.

The Welsh squad in full:

Goalkeepers:ย Wayne Hennessey, Danny Ward, Adam Davies.

Defenders:ย Chris Gunter, Ben Davies, Connor Roberts, Ethan Ampadu, Chris Mepham, Joe Rodon, James Lawrence, Neco Williams, Rhys Norrington-Davies, Ben Cabango.
