There are two Cardiff City players in the squad for the game against Moldova on 5th September.

Well done Emyr Huws and Jazz Richards :ayatollah:





Aaron Ramsey and Jonny Williams have not been included in Wales' squad for the opening 2018 World Cup qualifier against Moldova on 5 September.

Arsenal midfielder Ramsey is out with a hamstring problem while Williams of Crystal Palace has an ankle injury.

Cardiff midfielder Emyr Huws, Leicester forward Tom Lawrence and Newcastle defender Paul Dummett return after missing out on the Euro 2016 squad.

Wales host Moldova in Cardiff on 5 September.

Nottingham Forest's David Vaughan is not included after retiring from international football.

The 33-year-old, who was unused during Wales' Euro 2016 campaign, won 42 caps after making his Wales debut against the United States in 2003, scoring once.

Ramsey, 25, suffered a hamstring strain while playing for Arsenal against Liverpool on the opening weekend of the Premier League season.

Williams sustained an ankle injury in a pre-season game and has been ruled out for up to 10 weeks.

Lawrence, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Cardiff City, returns to the squad after an ankle injury ruled him out of Euro 2016 contention.

Striker Hal Robson-Kanu, who scored twice for Wales at Euro 2016, is included despite still being without a club since leaving Championship Reading at the end of last season
