The future of Wales coach Chris Coleman remains clouded.
Coleman's future as Wales manager intensified after a press conference to announce his team to face Finland was cancelled.
He is one of the favourites to replace Ian Holloway as Crystal Palace boss.
"We have discussed it with Chris and we have decided to release the squad by email because it would be a worthless exercise holding a press conference when all the questions will be about Chris' contract and Crystal Palace," an FAW spokesman said.
"We are not hiding anything. Chris will be in Cardiff on Friday."
