Kieffer Moore, Jonny Williams, Rubin Colwill and Mark Harris have been named in Wales' training squad.
But still NO Will Vaulks.
BBC Sport
Forward Hal Robson-Kanu has been left out of Wales' 28-man squad for a Euro 2020 training camp in Portugal.
West Bromwich Albion's Robson-Kanu, 32, was one of Wales' stars of Euro 2016, scoring an iconic goal in the 3-1 quarter-final win over Belgium.
He reversed his retirement from international football last year but was sent home from Wales' squad in March after "breaching protocols".
Cardiff City midfielder Will Vaulks has again been omitted.
Leeds United forward Tyler Roberts and Schalke winger Rabbi Matondo are both included despite being sent home from Wales' squad in March along with Robson-Kanu.
It now looks increasingly unlikely that Robson-Kanu will feature at this summer's delayed Euro 2020, unless there are injuries to other players.
Winger Daniel James is not in the squad because of his club Manchester United's involvement in the Europa League final but, fitness permitting, he is almost certain to be included in the final 26-man squad for the European Championship.
Other players missing because of club commitments are defenders Connor Roberts and Ben Cabango, whose Swansea City side are playing in Saturday's Championship play-off final.
Forward Brennan Johnson, on loan at Lincoln City from Nottingham Forest, will be at Wembley for the League One play-off final, while goalkeeper Tom King and midfielder Josh Sheehan will be there with Newport County for the League Two play-off final.
In their absence, young players not expected to feature at Euro 2020, such as Cardiff City's Rubin Colwill and Mark Harris, have been included for the trip to Portugal.
Manager Robert Page otherwise has a full squad at his disposal, including Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey.
The training camp, taking place in the Algarve region between 24 and 29 May, is in preparation for friendly matches against France on 2 June and Albania on 5 June.
Page will announce his final 26-man squad for Euro 2020 on Sunday.

You can’t help but feel a bit for Will Vaulks, always give 110%. No doubt this experience will be good for Colwill and Harris’ development though.

Bluebirds

Harris and Colwill will be cut from the squad and don't forget someone has to make room for Dan James as well.

Completely agree, maybe I should have worded my post slightly better, in so much as the training camp will benefit them.

Don't forget there's at least 2 Swansea players to be added to the squad due to the playoffs. So a few of this squad will be axed on Friday.

Something must have gone on, for Will not to get in above the other City players. We also have Morrell and Smith who doesn’t play regular. I’m not sure how Levitt is getting on in Croatia, but surely Will should be amongst them.

Wales play a possession game and although Vaulks has many strengths I am not sure his passing is one of them, something for him to work on and up his game for next season to the benefit of himself and us.
Having said that, I would have taken him as his energy and long throws would surely be useful off the bench in a major tournament.

Something must be going on at a personal level between Page and/or Giggs for Vaulks to be left out again. I dont buy this style of play argument. Sometimes you need a plan B. Allen is not a dead cert to be fit for a start and Johnny Williams has hardly played, so not to take to the training camp at least a box to box midfield player who has been playing at the higher end of the Championship and scored some good goals this season makes me think its personal. Wales are hardly spoilt for choice in midfield once you take out the likely starting line up of Allen, Ramsey and Ampadu.

Both. They had it lined up when Vaulks was out delivering food boxes.

Vaulks wasn’t that innocent. Was delivering boxes trying to find fit single mothers.
When I say Vaulks did that I’m actually talking about myself.
