He will be out at least until the international break.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Farke hopes the 24-year-old &#8211; who can play in midfield or defence &#8211; will be fit for his side after Craig Bellamy&#8217;s national squad go to Kazakhstan on 4 September before hosting Canada in a friendly five days later.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;He&#8217;s a tough boy. He will miss the next three games including the cup game,&#8221; added Farke.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;I hope to have him back the other side of the international break. It&#8217;s a blow for us that he will miss the upcoming games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;[It&#8217;s] not ideal. He&#8217;s our captain and a very important player. We will have to find some solutions.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wales could be without Ethan Ampadu for their World Cup qualifier against Kazakhstan in September.
