Scarlets Aim to Retain Stars Amid Squad Overhaul
Scarlets head coach Dwayne Peel is hoping to secure the long-term futures of Wales centre Johnny Williams and Scotland lock Alex Craig as the Welsh region undergoes a significant squad overhaul.
A host of experienced players are set to depart Parc y Scarlets, including Ken Owens, Jonathan Davies, Scott Williams, Dan Jones, Samson Lee, Wyn Jones, Johnny McNicholl, Kieran Hardy, Ryan Conbeer, Steff Thomas, Iwan Shenton, Eduan Swart, and Joe Jones.
Despite the impending departures, Peel is determined to build a competitive squad for the upcoming season, with Williams and Craig identified as key players he hopes to retain. Their potential commitment would provide stability and continuity as the Scarlets navigate this transitional period.
The Scarlets’ squad overhaul reflects the challenges faced by many professional rugby teams as they navigate the evolving landscape of the sport. Peel and his coaching staff will be working diligently to not only replace the outgoing talent but also to nurture the next generation of Scarlets stars.
