Swansea City U21s head coach and former academy manager Jon Grey has joined Gemma Grainger's Wales Women backroom staff.
The appointment has been made full-time ahead of Wales' two April friendlies against Northern Ireland and Portugal, with Grey having worked with Wales during last month's unbeaten Pinatar Cup run.
Wales' two friendlies act as a precursor to the inaugural Women's Nations League this autumn, but the overall aim to reach a first ever major women's football tournament remains as strong as ever. Having come agonisingly close to this summer's World Cup, but conceded a last-minute goal from Switzerland in extra time of a World Cup play-off final last October, Now, with qualifiers for the Women's Euros in 2025 set to begin early next year, Grainger is "leaving no stone unturned" to ensure qualification.
