Ashley Phillips: Wales want Tottenham defender to join World Cup campaign

Advertisements

Wales hope Tottenham defender Ashley Phillips could boost their World Cup qualifying hopes, if they can persuade the 20-year-old to switch allegiance from England.

Salford-born Phillips, who has a Welsh mother, was capped by Wales at under-16 level before representing England at various age grades.

Wales have made contact with the centre-back who was in the England U21 squad in November and also qualifies for Nigeria.

Head coach Craig Bellamy will be without injured captain Ben Davies for World Cup play-offs at the end of the month, while West Brom centre-back Chris Mepham has also been absent for over a month with a hamstring problem.
