Aaron Ramsey: Wales captain makes debut in Mexico for Pumas UNAM

Despite injuries and a brief spell in management, Ramsey has made it clear he wants to continue his playing career to lead Wales at the World Cup next summer.

He took charge of his home-town club Cardiff City as interim manager for the final three games of the 2024-25 season but was unable to prevent relegation from the Championship.

In July, the former Arsenal and Juventus midfielder said he was “excited by the challenge” of becoming the first high-profile British player to play in the Mexican league.

Wales travel to Astana on Thursday, 4 September second in group J. They also play a friendly against Canada in Swansea on 9 September.
