The pair have been named in Matty Jones' 23-player squad for the 2027 European Under-21 Championship qualifiers against Belgium and Austria. Bluebirds prospect Anyadike, 15, became the youngest player in EFL Cup history when he played in the second-round defeat by Norwich City in August. The schoolboy from Carmarthenshire has also been an unused substitute in three Championship fixtures. Munro, who can play centre-back and full-back, signed a first professional contract with the Red Devils in 2025 and was involved with the seniors in pre-season.

Senior internationals Charlie Crew, Kai Andrews and Ronan Kpakio are selected for the fixtures against Belgium in Westerlo on Tuesday, 29 September (19:00 BST) and Austria at the Oval in Caernarfon on Tuesday, 6 October (17:30 BST). Wales are fourth in the five-team Group I with two wins from six games ahead of the final two fixtures of the campaign. They travel to face a Belgium side who are currently top and won 7-0 when the teams met at Rodney Parade in Newport last October. Wales bounced back from that defeat by upsetting second-placed Austria 2-0 thanks to goals by Gabriele Biancheri and Chris Popov.
