David Brooks visits Wales camp ahead of make-or-break World Cup showdown with England as the Bournemouth star slowly works his way back to full fitness after recovering from cancer

David Brooks has boosted Wales just hours before their make or break World Cup clash with England by visiting the squad at their hotel in Doha.

Brooks has not played since September 29, 2021 after being diagnosed with stage two Hodgkin lymphoma the following month.

The 25-year-old Bournemouth forward announced in May that he had been given the all clear after completing his treatment and has slowly been working his way back to fitness since.

Brooks missed out on World Cup selection but has now joined Robert Page's squad in Qatar as they prepared for their final group game on Tuesday night.
