Wales to play Republic of Ireland in February friendly in Dublin
- Published
Wales will travel to Dublin to face the Republic of Ireland in an international friendly match on Tuesday, 27 February.
Wales, who saw Gemma Grainger stand down as manager earlier this month, will use the game as a warm-up for Euro 2025 qualifying.
Grainger, who succeeded Jayne Ludlow in March 2021, will take up a new head coach role with Norway.
Wales will be lead by interim head coach Jon Grey, Grainger's former assistant manager.
Football Association of Wales [FAW] chief executive Noel Mooney says he is hopeful of announcing Grainger's successor before Euro qualifying begins in April.
Republic of Ireland are ranked 24th in the world, while Wales are 32nd.
"The Republic of Ireland are eight places above us in the world rankings which will benefit us because we always want to play and test ourselves against higher-ranked nations,"Grey said said.
"We've taken plenty of learnings away from our first Nations League campaign and we'll look to build on these heading into this friendly fixture and beyond.
"The 2025 Women's Euro qualifying draw takes place in early March and hopefully this camp will help get the players in the best place possible for the start of the upcoming qualifying campaign."
