Savage had to withdraw from the Wales squad that played Azerbaijan on Wednesday because of a groin injury sustained in last Sunday's Premiership game against Fulham.

“I’ve had phone calls and letters about this," said Bruce.

"Robbie Savage wanted to play for Wales and I would never, ever stop people playing for their country"

“People seem to think I’ve got a vendetta against Mark Hughes and the Football Association of Wales but it simply isn’t true,” Bruce told BBC Radio 5 Live on Friday night.
