Chris Coleman hopeful of no restrictions on Aaron Ramsey

Coleman hopeful of no restrictions on Ramsey

Wales boss Chris Coleman has said that he will take no risks on the fitness of Aaron Ramsey, despite handing the Arsenal midfielder a recall to his squad.

Ramsey has been forced to miss his nation's first three World Cup qualifiers because of an hamstring injury but he is back in the fold after starting for the Gunners in their 3-2 win over Ludogorets Razgrad in the Champions League.

However, while Coleman has admitted his delight at having one of his key players back in the squad, he has indicated that he is not certain of having Ramsey available to play for 90 minutes.

The 46-year-old told reporters: "We hope we are not getting a player that is going to be restricted with game time, but with a player as good as Aaron, something is better than nothing.

"We have never taken risks with players and we wouldn't with Aaron."

Ramsey played an integral part of Wales's run to the semi-finals of Euro 2016 during the summer.
