Wales manager Chris Coleman has claimed that "a lot needs to happen" if Ched Evans is to return to international football.
The 27-year-old, who has won 13 caps for the Dragons, was found not guilty of raping a 19-year-old woman in a hotel room after a retrial in October.
Evans was originally found guilty of rape in 2012 and served two-and-a-half years of a five-year prison sentence, but this conviction was quashed in April.
When asked about whether the Chesterfield striker would be considered for a Wales recall, Coleman told reporters: "From the football side of it, he has missed a lot of football.
"Since he has been away a lot has happened to [Wales]. There are a lot of players in front of him. From a football perspective, a lot needs to happen.
"If anyone is going to make an impact [with the Welsh team], they need to be at least playing at the highest level and doing the business at the highest level."
Evans's last appearance for Wales was in a 2-0 defeat by England in March 2011.
