Rees-Zammit Returns as Tandy Begins Wales Tenure

Louis Rees-Zammit has returned to rugby union after an 18-month attempt at an NFL career, during which he spent time with both the Jacksonville Jaguars and Kansas City Chiefs. New Wales head coach Steve Tandy, set to start on September 1 and the first Welshman to lead in 18 years, welcomed Rees-Zammit's return as a major boost for the squad and fans. Tandy expressed excitement but cautioned that Wales still faces significant challenges and there is no quick solution for success. He is open to Rees-Zammit playing club rugby wherever best supports his development. Rees-Zammit, who has earned 32 caps and scored 14 tries for Wales, is expected to increase competition for selection ahead of matches against Argentina, Japan, New Zealand, and South Africa. Tandy believes Rees-Zammit's NFL experience will enhance his rugby abilities.
