Wales call a press conference for Monday afternoon where it is expected that manager Chris Coleman will announce details of a new two-year contract.

Chris Coleman is reportedly close to agreeing a new deal with Wales to see him through beyond this summer's European Championship finals.

The 45-year-old, who has recently been linked with high-profile club jobs, is out of contract later this year.

However, a press conference has been called for Monday afternoon in Cardiff where Coleman is expected to announce his intention to stay on for another qualifying campaign.

Wales will compete at Euro 2016 this summer after finishing second in Group B behind Belgium. They will meet Slovakia, Russia and arch-rivals England in just their second ever appearance at a major finals.
