Wales centurion Davies presented with Golden Cap by Spurs legend
Ben Davies was presented with a Golden Cap on Thursday night (26 March) in honour of reaching 100 caps for Wales.
First capped in 2012, Ben became only the fourth Welshman to reach a century after Gareth Bale (111), Chris Gunter and Wayne Hennessey (both 109) when he led his country out against Belgium in a FIFA 2026 World Cup qualifier back in October, 2025.
Our longest-serving current player received his special memento from Spurs legend and compatriot Cliff Jones - the last surviving Welsh player from the 1958 FIFA World Cup squad - prior to last night's World Cup play-off semi-final against Bosnia-Herzegovina at Cardiff City Stadium.
Unable to feature as he works his way back from surgery on a fractured ankle, the centre-back was watching on from the Welsh bench supporting his team-mates as his nation were agonisingly eliminated on penalties following a 1-1 draw after extra time.
Cliff, 91, was capped 59 times, scoring 16 goals, and played five times in the World Cup. Both he and Ben started out at Swansea City before spending the majority of their club careers at Spurs with the Welsh pair two of only 29 players to make over 350 appearances for us since we joined the Football League in 1908.
Cliff sits 19th on the all-time list with 378 appearances during his decade in north London and Ben is currently 15 behind on 363 games in Lilywhite to sit joint-25th with Jermain Defoe.
