Read our privacy policy Joe Allen has hailed the rise of Harry Wilson but says it was evident his Wales team-mate would be a “brilliant player” when they were at Liverpool together. The 27-year-old has emerged as his country’s talisman since the retirement of Gareth Bale nearly two years ago, becoming the first Wales player since the former Real Madrid star to score in three successive games during the current Nations League campaign. “Where Harry is now is where we all expected him to go,” Allen said ahead of Saturday’s crunch Nations League trip to Turkey. It’s great to see and hopefully he can ride this wave and take his form into his future with Wales.” Allen returned to Wales action last month after quitting the international scene in February 2023.
