Ethan Ampadu Is Wales' Captain In Waiting, Says Boss Rob Page
Ethan Ampadu can steer Wales towards the Euro 2024 finals on Thursday night – by underlining why he is their next Celtic warrior leader after Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey. Ampadu will win his 50th cap at the age of just 23 when Wales host Finland in their crunch play-off semi-final in Cardiff. It’s a landmark achievement which Wales manager Rob Page insists proves Ampadu is likely to be his country’s next long-term captain in succession to Bale and Ramsey.
Normal service was resumed in the South Wales derby as Liam Cullen and Jamal Lowe scored the goals that barely reflected the total dominance of Swansea City over rivals Cardiff in a 2-0 home win. Despite arriving on the back of a four-match winning streak - a run that had prompted optimism around a late promotion surge - Cardiff were second best in every aspect.

Wales are now officially down among the dead men of world rugby after slumping to a second successive home defeat to Italians to end their Six Nations campaign without a win.

Something Stirs For Josh Adams . . . But It’s Not Made Of Silver Or Gold
