Wales are prepared to target attracting more former England players to formally switch allegiance in light of World Rugby's new eligibility regulations.
Since January, international players are able to apply to represent a second national team following a three-year stand-down period if transferring to a country where they, their parents or grandparents were born.
Headlines on players making use of the rule changes have largely come from the southern hemisphere until now, with former New Zealand and Australia players switching to the likes of Tonga, Samoa or Fiji. This is largely intended consequence of the new regulations amid a desire to revitalise the tier two nations in the men's game.
