Ospreys sign new Professional Rugby Agreement with WRU

Ospreys become the third Welsh region to sign a new Professional Rugby Agreement with the WRU, while Scarlets have not yet secured a deal for next season. The agreement covers player contracts, commercial rights and development funding.

Ospreys aim to retain local talent and boost their competitiveness on the European stage. The WRU hopes the new contracts will bring greater parity across the regions.

Delays in the Scarlets' negotiations could reshape the balance of power in the Pro14 league.
