Wales midfielder Joe Ledley has tipped compatriot Gareth Bale to reach the milestone of 100 international caps.

The Real Madrid star will make his 50th appearance for Wales against Belgium in this Friday's Euro 2016 qualifier, and Ledley believes that he will go on to reach triple figures.

"For me he is one of the best players in the world and I think Gareth and Wayne [Hennessey] will get to 100 caps, and Chris Gunter is also over 50 at such a young age," Sky Sports News quotes Ledley as saying.

"I roomed with him once or twice as we had just come into the squad. He was quiet and used to just get on with it. Any kid who comes through at club and country is shy, but he has grown into a man.

"But you can see from Gareth now that he plays for one of the best teams in the world. You can only just listen to a person like that and learn."

No Welshman has ever reached 100 caps, with former Everton goalkeeper Neville Southall holding the record on 92.
