Harlequins fly-half Jarrod Evans, Gloucester fly-half Gareth Anscombe and centre Max Llewellyn have been called up by Wales interim head coach Matt Sherratt, while Rob Howley is no longer part of the coaching staff. Warren Gatland left his position by mutual consent on Tuesday after overseeing the side’s record-extending 14th straight defeat, a 22-15 Six Nations loss to Italy in Rome – Wales’ first on Italian soil in 18 years. That followed on from a 43-0 drubbing to France in the first round of this year’s Six Nations, raising the prospect of successive wooden spoons. Anscombe and Llewellyn were surprise omissions from Gatland’s Six Nations squad, while Evans made his last Wales appearance against Argentina in 2021. Wales’ new-look squad will assemble for a training camp on Monday February 17, to prepare for their next match against Ireland at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Saturday February 22. Ospreys centre Owen Watkin has been released from the squad as he requires surgery on an ACL tear suffered against France, while Saracens full-back Liam Williams has also been released due to a knee injury picked up in the same game. Meanwhile, Howley remains under contract with the Welsh Rugby Union but will not be part of the coaching team for the remaining three fixtures of their 2025 Six Nations campaign, according to a statement from the WRU. Howley was a coaching mainstay during Gatland’s first reign in charge of Wales and returned to the staff as an assistant ahead of last year’s Six Nations.
