Gareth Bale will receive a farewell from Wales fans at the Euro 2024 qualifier against Latvia in Cardiff on Tuesday.
Former captain Bale retired from football in January after making 111 appearances and scoring 41 goals - both records for the team - during a remarkable 16-year international career.
The 33-year-old former Real Madrid played his final game at the World Cup in November and will arrive in Cardiff from his Los Angeles home before kick-off.
There will be a pitchside presentation ahead of the game with Bale expected to say a few words to Wales supporters.
'@Gareth Bale11 will be at the Cardiff City Stadium tomorrow night,' the Football Association of Wales said on their official Twitter account on Monday.
