Scarlets boss Simon Muderack says the regions need to watch out for “gotcha clauses” in the long-term financial deal they are close to agreeing with the Welsh Rugby Union.
Executive chairman Muderack believes the six-year package could be signed off in the next few days with significant progress having been made over the past week. However, he says the regions do need to be cautious over the fine detail given the historic relationship with the governing body.
Outlining the ongoing negotiations, he told BBC Radio Wales: “It is an hour by hour, daily activity, across all four regions and the union trying to pull the deal together. We had productive all-day sessions in London and Cardiff last week where we made some good progress through final items and then the regions hunkered down and turned around a full set of mark-ups back to the WRU on Friday.
