Aaron Ramsey fit for Wales's World Cup qualifier against Macedonia

Wales manager Chris Coleman has claimed that he expects midfielder Aaron Ramsey to be fit for Friday's World Cup qualifier against Macedonia.

The 22-year-old had been a slight doubt for the encounter after suffering a dead leg during Arsenal's 1-1 draw with West Bromwich Albion last Sunday.

"Aaron came off for Arsenal at the weekend with a dead leg and we have been managing that," BBC Sport quotes Coleman as saying. "He will not train today but we expect him to be available for Friday."

Ramsey will be handed the captain's armband in the absence of Ashley Williams.
