Preston goalkeeper Chris Maxwell named in Wales squad

Preston North End goalkeeper Chris Maxwell has been called up by Wales for the friendlies against France and Panama.

PNE’s No.1 was part of the senior squad for the first time during the last international break and watched on from the bench as Chris Coleman’s side missed out on reaching the World Cup play-offs after defeat to the Republic of Ireland.
