I know it's been mentioned but I can't find a confirmed either way about whether he is qualified or not.
The reason I have brought it up is that I was playing Football Manager 2018 last night and my brother is boss of Hull City and Jarrod Bowen has just got selected for Wales on that.
I have tweeted Hull, FM and Jarrod about this to try and get an answer either way.

Anyone know if he has welsh roots? Born near Hereford an plays for hull. Seems to get picked up as qualifies for welsh team in football manager game an they’re pretty up to date with stats. Welsh sounding name

Did the ayatollah as soon as he came on against Cardiff. That's enough to be eligible, surely?

Weirdly, heard somewhere that Jarrod doesn't think he's eligible for us?
Confused...definitely.

Being born so close to the border and with a fairly Welsh name you would hope there was chance of some sufficiently recent welsh heritage. Surely this would have been determined by now though. On the transfer market site he's listed English and Welsh under nationality but most others list him as English. Would be a fantastic coup if we were to join up with us. See Tottenham are interested in him with a possible fee of £ 20 million.

Apparently was doing some bits with a Football Manager YouTube guy on one of his series and he got Welsh caps in the game and Jarrod was confused as to how that was possible.

You'd think all home nation footballers would undertand the eligibility criteria. Assuming he does, this suggests that neither of his parents nor grandparents are Welsh. In which case no further debate to be had. If he said "I don't think I'm eligible" then that means the FAW haven't approched him yet, as they would have confirmed this 100% either way. It'd be easier if he had said I consider myself English and wouldn't play for any other country, then we wouldn't be debating it. It sounds like he MAY be interested if he were eligible, although that now seems unlikely.

Would he be able to live this down even if he was eligible? (for avoidance of doubt - this was the day we played them in Lens)

Heard on facebook that Jarrod Bowen's father is Welsh plus Newcastle keeper Karl Darlow's grandfather is also Welsh - not sure if that's true - anyone know if rumours are true?

Think this has been discussed, I saw Bowen playing for Hull and was impressed but I don't think he qualifies bro.

There were rumours about Bowen before. One comment I saw said he's 'English through and through'.

Bowen isn't eligible. dragonsoccer has confirmed. I remember an interview where the interviewer was talking to Bowen about how he was eligible for Wales on Football Manager, and Bowen replied saying "eligible for Wales? That's news to me"

Ah good it’s that time of the month where someone brings up Bowen. Should also be due for a comment on how Giggs could’ve played for England when he actually wasn’t eligible.
Will Hughes seems to come up a lot but he is also not eligible.
Darlow just like Shawcross,Dave Jones, da Silva, Bond, Lloyd Jones, Dummett etc etc etc doesn’t want to play for us and it would be embarrassing to chase him.

But surely there must some unturned stones out there still.....James Chester, Moore etc. I think it would be unlikely that there are ones we are unaware of who are also good enough to get in our current squad. Purely based on their names, with no other basis for speculation here's some players it's fun to speculate about; Alex Pritchard - he'd be unlikely to get in our squad, although I suppose he'd be good enough to be on the fringes for now Tom Davies - been mentioned before and I think there was no answer either way - worth a check though as he'd definitely be good enough for our midfield & actually would be quite an asset I think Ollie Watkins - born in Torquay relatively close to the Celtic nation of Cornwall. Surname Watkins...I know it's a reach but any chance of a grandparent perhaps? Brandon Williams - probably been mentioned before but did we ever hear anything about this? Again would be good enough for the squad if eligible Kyle Edwards - West Brom forward, the new Hal? All I could think of for now! Speculate away!
