    New Newport County signing Matt Smith has not given up on returning to the Wales squad, despite dropping into League Two with the Exiles.

    Smith, 25, has won 19 caps for Wales since making his debut as an 18-year-old under Ryan Giggs.

    But the midfielder has not featured since being part of the squad that travelled to Qatar for the 2022 World Cup having made the move to the Scottish Premiership with St Johnstone.

    Now 25, Smith has headed to Rodney Parade to link up with new County boss David Hughes, his manager during his time at Wales youth level.

    And speaking of his time in the national set-up, Smith told the club: "It's always been a massive honour to represent Wales. Every time I put on the shirt was a really proud moment and something I look back on with fond memories.

    "I'd love to get back to that level again. I spent a number of years involved in the set-up and it's something I truly cherish.

    "Being around players of that calibre, you see the standards every day in training and around the camp. I've learnt a lot from those players, and I hope to take those experiences forward here."

    Born in Redditch but eligible for Wales via a grandparent, the Manchester City academy graduate won caps under Hughes at under-17 level.

    He added: "I've worked with the manager before, so we already have that connection. We had a really good conversation and he knows who I am, what I can bring, and the type of person I am. For me, it was a no-brainer. I'm really excited to be part of it.

    "I want to be a big part of this team and help Newport push up the league and finish as strongly as possible. It's got a fantastic fanbase. I've always admired the club from afar, especially with the Welsh connection, and I've seen the passion the fans bring."
