Wilson returns as Wales call up uncapped Duncan
Harry Wilson is back in Wales' squad for their Nations League matches against Norway and Portugal, while there is a first call-up for young goalkeeper Joe Duncan.
Wilson, who has been one of Wales' most influential players in recent years, has not featured for his country since March due to injuries. His Leeds United team-mate, centre-back Joe Rodon, also returns despite injuring his hamstring in August.
Cardiff City playmaker Rubin Colwill is recalled, but fellow midfielder Jordan James is out after sustaining an injury against Wolves last Saturday.
The only new call-up is 20-year-old keeper Duncan, who is on loan at National League side Southend United from Championship outfit Bristol City. Born in Bristol, Duncan qualifies for Wales through his maternal grandfather from Cardiff, and has previously represented Wales Under-21s.
Wales, aiming to preserve their place in the Nations League's top tier, face Norway in Oslo on Saturday, 14 November, before finishing their campaign at home against Portugal on Tuesday, 17 November.
The squad could still finish in second, third or fourth place in Group A4, with a top-two spot taking them to the Nations League quarter-finals in March 2027. Finishing third would mean a relegation play-off, while bottom place could result in direct relegation or a play-off, depending on ranking with other League A groups.
