Dundee United star Dylan Levitt has been named in Wales’ World Cup squad.
Levitt, 21, boasts 13 caps for the Dragons and is among the bright young talents boss Rob Page is taking to Qatar.
Wales are in Group B and will kick off their campaign with a clash with the USA on November 21.
They then face Iran (November 25) before concluding the section with a mouth-watering encounter with England (November 29).

Wales are participating at a World Cup for the first time since 1958.
And speaking earlier this season, Levitt, who started against Kilmarnock on Wednesday night, admitted that the prospect of making the flight to the Middle-East was one of his reasons for returning to Tannadice.
“That’s another reason I have come back: to get minutes before the World Cup and give myself the best chance to be in the squad,” he said. “Rob Page [Wales manager] just wants us all to be playing at club level.
“You don’t want to be going into very tough international games against the best nations in the world and not have games under your belt.
“You’d be playing catch-up.”
He added: “We’ve had the Euros, but this is the biggest one. The whole nation is just overwhelmed.”
