(Reuters) - Derby County forward Tom Lawrence, who was arrested and charged with drink-driving last month, was on Thursday named in the Wales squad for their Euro 2020 qualifying games against Slovakia and Croatia later this month.
The 25-year-old was charged by Derbyshire Police alongside his Derby team mate Mason Bennett following a collision on Sept. 24 as the Championship club's skipper Richard Keogh sustained a knee injury that ruled him out for the season.
Lawrence played in the second-tier club's 2-2 draw against Barnsley on Wednesday after missing their 3-2 home win over Birmingham on Saturday.
Juventus midfielder Aaron Ramsey returns to the 26-man squad after shaking off a hamstring injury that kept out of the first half of their qualifying campaign.
Wales will travel to Slovakia on Oct. 10 before returning to Cardiff to face Group E leaders Croatia three days later.
Manager Ryan Giggs also included fit-again captain Ashley Williams, winger Rabbi Matondo and striker Tyler Roberts.
Wales are fourth out of five teams in their group with six points after four games but have a game in hand on their rivals.
Croatia top the group with 10 points, one more than Slovakia.
