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.

Rob Page wants to continue as Wales manager and expects the Football Association of Wales to keep him in post. Despite failing to make this summer’s Euro 2024 finals in Germany after losing Tuesday night’s play-off final against Poland in heartbreaking fashion on penalties, the national team boss is determined to stay on.

Ethan Horvath has hailed the influence of Ole Gunnar Solskjær on his career after joining the Manchester United legend’s former club Cardiff City.

Steve Cooper has joined the growing army of managers who want a VAR re-boot after claiming it is creating “animosity inside stadia”.

Nottingham Forest’s Welsh boss Steve Cooper expected Callum Hudson-Odoi to have a big impact as his “moment of brilliance” earned a 1-1 draw with Burnley.

Michael Duff has tipped Nathan Wood for a future with England after Swansea City fought off fierce transfer interest from Southampton for the defender.
