Craig Bellamy to quit international football

Wales striker Craig Bellamy admits that he will retire from international football when his side's World Cup qualifying games end in October.

Wales striker Craig Bellamy has revealed that he will retire from international football at the end of his side's World Cup qualifying matches.

Chris Coleman's side are currently fourth in Group A with slim hopes of reaching Brazil in 2014, and the 33-year-old feels that he has nothing left to give.

Bellamy told reporters: "I want us to finish third because we won't finish first or second and then probably that will be it.

"I don't think I will have any more to offer then. The last few months of this season were tough."

Bellamy made his Wales debut in 1998 and has since made 73 appearances for his national side.
