PASSPORT CHECKS BAFFLE BELLAMY

FOOTBALL: WALES BOSS BACK RIVAL TUCHEL.

- BY JOHN CROSS

PROUD Welshman Craig Bellamy insists “everyone gets caught up” in Thomas Tuchel being German - when winning is all that matters.

The Wales boss laughed off questions about Tuchel’s nationality and claims England had to go for the best man for the job.

Bellamy promised to try to upset the Three Lions at Wembley in tonight's friendly, but he insists the ex-Chelsea and Bayern Munich head coach can win the World Cup next summer.

Former Wales striker Bellamy said: “Everyone gets caught up in this. What's the most important thing for England to do? I don't believe it matters. Get the best person.

“If the most incredible coach - and he happens to be from your country — that's a win-win. I always believe it should be the best person, it does not matter where they are from. Just get the best person you want.
