Wales move for Newcastle keeper Darlow

Wales are hoping to convince Karl Darlow to switch international allegiances.

The Newcastle United shot-stopper was overlooked by Gareth Southgate for England's upcoming World Cup qualifiers.

Despite an injury to Jordan Pickford, Southgate opted to select Dean Henderson, Nick Pope and Sam Johnstone.

The Athletic reports Wales want to capitalise on Darlow's dissatisfaction.

The 30-year-old qualifies for Wales through his grandfather, who played in the last Wales team to qualify for a World Cup back in 1958.
