Gareth Bale set to face Republic of Ireland in Nations League

Gareth Bale has been included in the Wales squad for their upcoming Nations League games against the Republic of Ireland and Finland.

Bale, who's on loan at Tottenham, missed last month's scoreless draw against Stephen Kenny's at the Aviva Stadium due to injury.

The Welsh skipper was also sidelined for the games against England and Bulgaria.

Bale is part of a 29-man Wales squad that will also face the USA in a friendly before the Nations League games against the Republic of Ireland and Finland.

The squad was selected by Ryan Giggs but he won't be involved in any of this month's matches after being arrested on suspicion of assault.

The Wales manager denies all allegations but the Football Association of Wales says it has been "mutually agreed" Giggs will not be involved.

Rob Page will take charge of the team along with Albert Stuivenberg.

Juventus midfielder Aaron Ramsey is also included despite coming off in Juve's Champions League win over Ferencvaros on Wednesday.

Tom Lawrence, Tom Lockyer and James Lawrence all return to the squad.

Wales squad: Ward, Fon Williams, King, Gunter, Davies, Roberts, Ampadu, Mepham, Lockyer, Rodon, N Williams, Lawrence, Cabango, Norrington-Davies, Ramsey, J Williams, Wilson, Brooks, James, Smith, Morrell, Levitt, Johnson, Sheehan, Bale, Lawrence, Moore, Ratondo, Roberts.
