Warren Gatland set to leave role as Wales head coach – reports

Warren Gatland is reportedly on the verge of leaving his job as Wales boss (Adam Davy/PA) - (PA Wire)

Warren Gatland’s second reign as Wales head coach appears to be nearing its conclusion, according to reports.

The Welsh Rugby Union is reportedly set to call time on Gatland’s tenure with immediate effect on Tuesday afternoon, meaning he would not be in charge when Wales resume their Guinness Six Nations campaign at home to title favourites Ireland on February 22.

It follows a record run of 14 successive Test match defeats that began with Wales’ 2023 World Cup quarter-final loss to Argentina.
