Davies has been drafted into the Welsh squad for their under-21 international with Stuart Pearce’s team at Wrexham on Thursday night.
The 22-year-old is included as an over-age player and could face high-class opponents including Arsenal star Theo Walcott, Middlesbrough defender David Wheater and Aston Villa’s Gabriel Agbonlahor.
Davies was called in to replace Manchester City forward Ched Evans, who is needed for his club’s tour of Thailand, and joins Athletic team-mate Neal Eardley in the Welsh set-up.
Both men have won full international honours this season and appeared in the same Wales team who achieved an emphatic victory over Norway.
At under-21 level, Davies holds eight caps and is one of only four Welsh players – the others being Evans, Lee Jones and John Hartson – to score a hat-trick.
There is a major incentive to perform well in this week’s friendly as Wales are approaching two full internationals within the next month.
They face Iceland before taking on Holland, who will be preparing for the Euro 2008 finals which get under way on June 7.
Meanwhile, two more events are being staged to boost the Ernie Cooksey Treatment Fund.
