Craig Bellamy: I'm in Olympics squad

Liverpool striker Craig Bellamy has revealed that he is in the Team GB football squad for this summer's Olympics.

Coach Stuart Pearce, who is yet to officially name his team, will be allowed three players over the age of 23 in his final selection.

"I am in the Olympic squad — but I was supposed to keep it quiet," Bellamy, 32, is quoted as saying by The Sun.

"It's a different challenge. I had a difficult season with Liverpool but the Olympics is a one-off."

Bellamy has scored 19 goals in 69 appearances for Wales since making his international debut in 1998.
