CHARLIE SAVAGE has opened up on possibly making his Wales debut in Wrexham tonight (October 11).

Son of Bradley-born footballer Robbie - 20-year-old Charlie now plays for Reading having previously been at Manchester United for a number of years.

A midfielder like his father, he has been selected in Rob Page's squad for Wales friendly v Gibraltar at the STok Cae Ras tonight.

And there are strong rumours that he could be set to earn his first cap in front of a sell-out 10,000-strong crowd.

It's certainly set to be a special night for the likes of Charlie, whose family are from the Wrexham area. 

Speaking to the FAW website, he said: "My nan’s coming, she lives about a mile away from The Racecourse. To have all my family there from Wrexham, it will be an amazing night.”

Charlie added: "Growing up, if someone told me at the age of 20 that I’d be called up by my country, I’d have bitten your hand off. I’ve got to enjoy it whether I play or not."

Fellow Wrexham-born star Owen Beck, the great-nephew of Liverpool and Wales striker Ian Rush, is also expected to make his senior bow in tonight’s friendly.

The Wrexham-born duo of keeper Danny Ward and full-back Neco Williams are also expected to play some part ahead of Sunday’s crucial Euro 2024 qualifier against Croatia in Cardiff.

Fellow north Walians Dylan Levitt (Bodelwyddan), Harry Wilson (Corwen) and Nathan Broadhead (Bangor) are also included in the squad.
