Lawlor set to miss Wales' Nations League games
Cardiff boss Brian Barry-Murphy says centre-back Dylan Lawlor is unlikely to be available for Wales' Nations League matches in Portugal and Denmark.
Cardiff City's centre-back Dylan Lawlor is expected to miss Wales' upcoming Nations League games in Portugal and Denmark next month. The 20-year-old, who has won six caps for Wales, was injured during his last international duty in June. Lawlor suffered a knee injury while playing against Ghana, and his return to action is still uncertain.
Cardiff City head coach Brian Barry-Murphy confirmed that Lawlor is not close to a comeback and has not played since his injury. Barry-Murphy noted that Lawlor is making progress with jogging but is still far from returning to the team. This is not Lawlor's first injury setback; he was sidelined for a month earlier this year due to a medial ligament knee injury sustained in January.
Lawlor returned in time for Wales' World Cup play-off semi-final defeat against Bosnia-Herzegovina, where he received praise from Barry-Murphy for his outstanding performance.
