    Warren Gatland has left his role as Wales head coach by “mutual agreement” and replaced with a current Vodacom URC tactician, the Welsh Rugby Union announced.

    Cardiff head coach Matt Sherratt has been appointed to lead the team in the final three matches of the 2025 Six Nations, the WRU stated on Tuesday.

    Wales have suffered a record 14 consecutive Test defeats and are on course for another embarrassing championship whitewash after a 22-15 loss in Italy at the weekend. They face a daunting task against two-time defending champions Ireland in Cardiff before a trip to Scotland and a home fixture against England.
