Wales are willing to appoint a non-Welshman as manager for the first time in 25 years. The Football Association of Wales has detailed the criteria required to succeed Rob Page after ending his three-and-a-half-year reign last week and invited “expressions of interest” from potential candidates.

Wrexham are set to survive in League One this season – but only just – according to the latest data on EFL fixture release day. That is according to the Grosvenor Sport SuperComputer, a model created by a specifically curated code, which works as a probability model to predict the outcome of every single League On match and then simulates every fixture 1,000 times.

Thierry Henry once flogged Renault Clios by talking about “va va voom”. But now it’s Wales who want to add some glamour to a bog-standard banger with the suggestion they want him to manage a team stuck on the hard shoulder.

Wrexham have signed goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo on a three-year deal following his release from Arsenal. Okonkwo joins the League One side on a permanent contact on 1 July when his deal with the Premiership outfit has expired.

Osian Roberts heads the early betting as favourite to take over from Rob Page as Wales manager. Page was dismissed on Friday morning following the dismal friendly performances against Gibraltar and Slovakia, which intensified the pressure built by the failure to qualify for Euro 2024.

Steve Cooper has vowed to make sure Leicester City rise to the challenge of staying in the Premier League next season after being appointed as their new manager on a three-year deal. The former Swansea City boss will ensure there is at least one Welsh manager working in the top flight next season, following his dismissal at Nottingham Forest midway through last season and the relegation suffered by Rob Edwards’s Luton Town.

Wales have begun the search for a new manager after Rob Page was sacked.

Newport County could turn to former Swansea City U23 coach Cameron Toshack after sacking Graham Coughlan. County parted company with Coughlan by “mutual consent” after 20 months as their manager, but the reality is that recently appointed chairman Huw Jenkins wanted a new man at the helm.

Steve Cooper is in line to become Leicester City’s new manager. The 44-year-old former Swansea City boss, who was dismissed by Nottingham Forest in December, has held extended talks with the Foxes, Forest’s big East Midlands rivals.

Steven Fletcher says he is looking forward to another season with Wrexham after signing a new one-year deal with the club. The 37-year-old former Scotland striker joined the club last summer after a spell at Dundee United.

Former Swansea City loan defender Marc Guehi has been lavished with praise by his England teammate Kyle Walker after the defender shone on his tournament debut in the Euro 2024 victory over Serbia. The Crystal Palace centre-back was selected alongside John Stones at the heart of Gareth Southgate’s defence for the Group C opener, with Harry Maguire having missed out on the squad through injury.

With the European Championships looming, many England fans are feeling excited about the prospect of football “coming home”. However, those of us on the outside are obviously hopeful it will be business as usual. They will win one game, start playing Frank Skinner and David Baddiel re-runs, and eventually get knocked out soon afterwards.

Rob Page’s position as Wales manager is set to come under review after hugely disappointing friendlies against Gibraltar and Slovakia. Page was booed by Wales fans again following the 4-0 thrashing in Slovakia on Sunday and there were more calls for him to quit after Thursday’s embarrassing 0-0 draw with Gibraltar, opponents ranked 203rd in the world.

Wales defender Ethan Ampadu has insisted that the squad “will always remain together” despite their embarrassing 4-0 loss to Slovakia. Ampadu was made captain for the first time in the friendly inTrvana, and he remains upbeat around the squad’s morale despite the result and growing pressure on manager Rob Page.

Rob Page appears to be bracing himself for bad news after another blow to his reputation and job security as Wales manager. The under-fire boss apologised to fans after a 4-0 thrashing to Slovakia and said it is “up to the powers that be” to decide if he stays in the job.

Rob Page will be keen to move on from the boos and jeers aimed at the Wales manager in his last match when his team face Slovakia on Sunday. The embattled Wales boss was the target for a small group of supporters who followed their team to Portugal in midweek to see them struggle in an acutely embarrassing 0-0 draw against Gibraltar. That result – even in a friendly – and adverse reaction has turned the pressure back on Page and prompted Welsh bookmakers DragonBet to offer close to even money odds on Page still being charge by September.

Jay Dasilva says he is “grateful” to have completed the journey from England youth cap to senior Wales international. Luton-born Dasilva was capped at every level by England from under-16 to under-21 level before making the switch to Wales.

There are plenty ready to turn the Page on the current Wales manager, but appearances can sometimes be deceptive. At first glance, a goalless draw against Gibraltar is an embarrassing scoreline for any national team that comprises full-time professional players.

Former Wales age-group international Chris Davies has left Tottenham to take over as Birmingham City’s new manager. The man who turned down Swansea City back in December has now decided the time is right to take over at another Championship club.

Rob Page has insisted Wales’ form is “okay” even though his spell as manager appears to be entering a crisis point following an embarrassing 0-0 draw with Gibraltar. The Wales manager faced up to the jeers directed at him after his team were held to a draw and promised not to lose focus on his long-term plan.
