Wales rugby star Liam Williams appears to be heading for pastures new amid contract chaos within the sport.
With the Welsh Rugby Union yet to seal a new funding deal with the country's regional sides, the uncertainty surrounding the players at the moment has almost seen them reach breaking point. With the majority of regional players yet to have secured a contract for next season, the national squad last week threatened to strike ahead of the home Six Nations clash with England - which would have cost them £9million.
However it was announced last week that Welsh players opted to cancel planned strike action over their contracts - with some players only having months left on their deals. Therefore, with the uncertainty around the future of the team, Sportsmail have reported that Williams is close to taking his talents to Japan.
