Wales striker Craig Bellamy has said that he will retire from international football at the end of the World Cup qualifying campaign next week.
According to Sport24, Bellamy has won 76 caps for Wales and scored 19 goals since making his debut against Jamaica in 1998.
He said that it was an honour to play for Wales and he was lucky enough to play for his country.
He added that he had to do best for the national team and this group of players was going to be key in the future.
Wales, who cannot qualify for the tournament in Brazil, play Macedonia in Cardiff on Friday, the report said.
If Bellamy picked up a booking he would miss the second match against Belgium through suspension, the report added.

He said that it was great to have been playing for the country for about 70 times and it would be hard to let go.
