Wales international Cory Hill is expected to make a call on his future in the coming weeks amid mounting interest from the Welsh regions in the 32-cap second row.
Hill is reportedly a target for a number of clubs in the French Top 14, including Bordeaux and Castres, while there is also set to be an option for him to stay in Japan, with the former Wales captain having made a significant impact over two campaigns with Yokohama Canon Eagles, the club making him captain of late of a team which includes World Cup winners Faf de Klerk and Jesse Kriel.
But his name is also featuring on radar screens in Wales, with three of the Welsh professional sides understood to be among those tracking a player who was once part of the national team’s leadership group.
