Wales’ Craig Bellamy excited by ‘fearless’ teenager Lewis Koumas
Stoke forward selected in manager’s first squadWales face Turkey and Montenegro in Nations League
Craig Bellamy has said he loves Lewis Koumas’s fearlessness and hopes the Wales captain, Aaron Ramsey, will help to flesh out the Liverpool youngster’s ability. Koumas, who joined Stoke on loan this summer, is regarded as a prodigious talent and was called up to Bellamy’s first squad as manager for a Nations League double-header next week.
Bellamy played with Koumas’s father, Jason, for his country and has picked the 18-year-old forward, who made his international debut in June, for games against Turkey and Montenegro. Koumas has scored in his past two Stoke appearances, including on his Championship debut. He also scored on his Liverpool debut in February, in an FA Cup victory against Southampton.
