Another potential huge blow for Welsh Rugby.

Webb’s deal with the WRU and Ospreys is up at the end of the season, with the scrumhalf recently revealing talks have taken place. Webb’s halfback partner Dan Biggar has already signed a deal to leave Wales for Northampton leaving Gatland with some tough selection decisions to make next season.
