A Wrexham star has received his first international call-up following his side's promotion from the National League this season.
The Welsh outfit registered an impressive 111 points as they secured their return to the Football League after a 15-year absence.
The team owned by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney now boast an international player in Jacob Mendy, who has been called up to the Gambia squad.
The 26-year-old wing-back has been included in Gambia's African Cup of Nations qualifier away to South Sudan.

Coach Tom Saintfiet has named a 23-man squad, which also includes Newcastle United bound Yankuba Minteh.
Mendy has opted to play for Gambia having been eligible to represent Guinea-Bissau, Senegal and Spain.
He joined Wrexham from Boreham Wood for an undisclosed fee last summer. He made 30 league appearances this term, scoring four goals.
Wrexham will likely recruit new players ahead of their campaign in League Two next season.
And Ben Foster, who's still deciding whether to rejoin the club after signing a short-term contract last March, has predicted how they will get on.
"I think we'll do alright, I really do," the goalkeeper said on The Fellas podcast.
"That first day of training when I got to see them, I thought 'ooh, there's no way you're National League'.
"I genuinely thought they'd do alright in League One, and maybe even in the Championship they'd hold their own.
"Wrexham last season beat Coventry in the FA Cup, held Sheffield United to a 3-3 draw and they scored a last-minute equaliser, and they only just narrowly lost in the reverse fixture as well. So they know how to play these types of players and they will step up their game when they need to.
"I've already seen a stat that says Wrexham are favourites to get promoted already. We've just been promoted, and now we're favourites to go up again. I'd back that as well... I'd back that because they're ballers."
