RHYS Norrington-Davies’ World Cup dream appears to be over according to Wales manager Rob Page.
The Sheffield United defender, who was raised in Bow Street near Aberystwyth, was carried off with a hamstring injury just 12 minutes into his side's 1-0 defeat at Coventry City last week.
"It looks like he will be out," Page said. "We are awaiting confirmation and it is a big shame for us and for him."
Norrington-Davies, who has 13 caps, is the first Wales player officially ruled out of the Qatar tournament by injury.

There is less than a month to go before Wales' first World Cup campaign in 64 years begins with a game against the United States in Qatar on Monday, November 21.
Page added: "I've seen him quite a bit for Sheffield United this season and arguably he's been their best player.
"So for him to get injured is so disappointing for him, but he has got a massive future in front of him."
