Joe Allen fears allayed but Wales star may have to wait for transfer amid Swansea City interest

Rob Page allayed concerns over Joe Allen's hamstring injury after confirming the midfielder will not feature for Wales against Netherlands.

The 32-year-old was withdrawn in the opening half of his country's 1-1 draw against Belgium at Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday after pulling up.
