Neco Williams admires Welsh football legends like Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey, and Craig Bellamy, but acknowledges the challenge of following in their footsteps. He sees it as both inspiring and a pressure.
Working under his hero Bellamy, now Wales head coach, Williams is a key part of the squad aiming to qualify for the next World Cup. Wales face Bosnia and Herzegovina in the play-off semi-final, with a potential final against Italy or Northern Ireland.
Williams says Bellamy’s passion as a player carries into his coaching, and that the team’s togetherness helps them cope with expectations. Having played in the 2022 World Cup, Williams believes this next tournament would be even more rewarding and hopes Wales can improve on their previous experience.
