Wales U21: Charlie Crew, Kai Andrews and Gabriele Biancheri in squad for Belarus

Senior internationals Charlie Crew and Kai Andrews have been named in the Wales Under-21 squad for this month’s Euro 2027 qualifier against Belarus in Georgia.

Manchester United’s Gabriele Biancheri is also included having scored on his first start for Matty Jones’ side in last month’s 2-0 away victory against Austria.

The win moved Wales off the bottom of Group J above Belarus with three points from three games, leaving them one point behind Denmark and Austria, who both trail leaders Belgium by four points.

Leicester City’s Chris Popov, who scored the other goal in Linz, also retains his place, while there are returns for Kit Margetson, Cian Ashford and Joel Cotterill, along with Exeter City defender Ed James, who has served a one-match suspension.

Cardiff City midfielder Dakarai Mafico and goalkeeper Luke Armstrong, who are both uncapped, are also included again.

Mafico received a first call-up for last month’s window, which also included a 7-0 home defeat against Belgium.

With Belarus banned from hosting games due to the country’s support for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the game takes place behind closed doors on Friday, 14 November (14:00 GMT) at Georgia’s Tengiz Burjanadze Stadium in Gori.
