⚡️ Rugby Buzz: Welsh Stars Tapped by Rebel League R360! ⚡️
Guess what, rugby fans? A new and controversial rebel league, R360, is making waves and they’ve got their eyes on some top Welsh talent! 🤩 Despite the recent struggles on the pitch, up to 15 Welsh internationals are reportedly being targeted.
The stars on R360’s wishlist include big names like Jac Morgan, Louis Rees-Zammit, and Johnny Williams, among others. This fresh league, spearheaded by rugby legend Mike Tindall and former Bath director Stuart Hooper, aims to revolutionise the sport with 12 new franchise teams loaded with world-class players. 🌍🏉
Promising perks? We’re talking eye-watering contracts worth up to £740,000 per season! 💰 Potential teams may pop up in global hotspots like Tokyo, London, and Miami. With its first season kicking off in September 2026, R360 is racing to sign 200 players by next month. If recent reports are anything to go by, they’re well on track!
Rumour has it, some Welsh players have even signed pre-contracts with R360! 😯 With setups like Rees-Zammit up for grabs, and Lions star Morgan high on their list, this could be a game-changer. Notably, Rees-Zammit is on the hunt for a new gig post-NFL and the lure of R360 might just seal the deal.
As the WRU grapples with these enticing offers amidst the controversial 25-cap law, it’s a wait-and-watch on how this will impact Welsh rugby’s landscape. 🌟 Will the lure of international action keep our players home, or will they take the plunge into R360’s latest venture?
Stay tuned, rugby aficionados! 📲 Let’s see how this saga unfolds and get ready for some electric shifts in the rugby world. 🏉🚀
