Wales manager, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ryan-Shawcross-c31996 to represent the Dragons at the international stage.
However, he admitted that he will need to talk to skipper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Aaron-Ramsey-c3065 for the move to go ahead without any hiccups.
The former Manchester United player has represented http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wales-c3041, he fulfils the eligibility criterion to play for the country at the international level.
Earlier, the defender was approached by the late Dragons manager, Gary Speed, but he turned down the offer citing his plans of pursuing an international career with the Three Lions.
Despite the fact that the 24-year old spurned an earlier overture from Wales, Coleman divulged that he is willing to do anything he can in order to make him change his mind. He also underscored that he was currently short of options as far as his squad is
concerned, and the defender’s inclusion will serve as a huge boost for the entire team.
He told the reporters in an interview, “My http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 is to try and improve Wales. Ryan [Shawcross] is a good player who could strengthen us. We don’t have a huge pool, we have to make the best of what we have. We could look at Ryan.”
The Welsh manager will also need to discuss the subject of Shawcross’ switch to Wales with his skipper, Aaron Ramsey, as both the players do not enjoy the best of terms.
Back in February 2010, a rash tackle from the Potters defender broke the leg of the Gunners midfielder, consequently keeping him out of action for almost 9 months. Shawcross was shown a straight red card for the challenge and left the field amid tears, after
seeing the nature of Ramsey’s injury.
Coleman admitted that he will need to dispel any misgivings between the two players if he is to bring the defender to Wales, and indicated that he will discuss the matter with Ramsey.
“I will have a conversation with Aaron [Ramsey] because he’s somebody I respect a great deal… I won’t shy away from it because there are issues.”
