🏉 Exciting news in the rugby world! Cardiff are on the brink of bringing back Wales forward Christ Tshiunza from Exeter Chiefs. The 24-year-old, known for his impressive athleticism, is set to rejoin his hometown club, putting him in a strong spot for a potential Wales Rugby World Cup lineup.
Tshiunza, standing tall at 6ft 6in, attended Whitchurch High School in Cardiff, the alma mater of sports legends like Sam Warburton and Gareth Bale. With his contract at Exeter running out at season’s end, Cardiff have jumped to the forefront, keen to secure his signature amidst competition from other clubs.
Despite a recent foot injury stalling his international career, Tshiunza brings versatility with his ability to play both lock and backrow. His potential return to Cardiff promises an exciting second-row partnership with Teddy Williams and the addition of former England’s Josh McNally could further bolster the team.
Cardiff’s rugby scene is buzzing, and a lot is happening with the club currently up for sale. The WRU is navigating a 60-day exclusivity window with Ospreys owners, Y11 Sports & Media, the preferred buyers of the historic Welsh club. However, fans can rest assured that at least four Welsh teams will be competing in the United Rugby Championship next season!
As the WRU plans to streamline professional teams, all clubs, Cardiff included, are gearing up their squads for the next season. Securing Tshiunza could be a brilliant move for Cardiff, especially after the departure of Ben Donnell to Ulster.
Stay tuned for more updates on Cardiff’s reshuffle and the promising return of Tshiunza! 🙌✨ #CardiffRugby #ChristTshiunza #RugbyTransfer #BackInWales
