Welsh Captain, Jac Morgan, signs for Gloucester Rugby

Gloucester Rugby is delighted to reveal that Wales captain and British & Irish Lion, Jac Morgan, will join the Cherry & Whites ahead of the 2026/27 season.

The 25-year-old forward can play across the back row and has earned recognition across the world for his industrious performances in both attack and defence.

Morgan has represented both the Scarlets and Ospreys in his homeland, making more than 70 senior appearances between the two. His domestic form in Wales and his impressive performances captaining the Wales U20s side saw him called up to the Wales senior squad for the first time in 2022, debuting in a victory over Scotland.

The former Wales U20s captain was named Wales senior co-captain for the 2023 Rugby World Cup, leading the side with fellow Osprey, Dewi Lake.

Morgan was one of two Welsh players named in the British & Irish Lions squad for their tour of Australia last Summer, winning Player of the Match against the Queensland Reds, and appearing from the bench in the Second and Third tests against the Wallabies.

Director of Rugby, George Skivington, commented:

“We’re really pleased to get a deal for Jac over the line. He’s a genuinely world-class rugby player and has a big impact in every team he’s been a part of, and that’s a really exciting prospect.

“Jac no doubt had lots of offers on the table, so for him to commit to the project here at Kingsholm is a great nod to the programme we have in place, and the ambition we have for next season and beyond.

“We’re looking forward to welcoming Jac into the group next season.”

Morgan added:

“I'm delighted to sign for Gloucester Rugby ahead of the 2026/27 season.

“It's a great club with brilliant supporters. I know a lot of players at Gloucester who speak highly of the environment and I'm excited for the future. I'm also looking forward to the challenge of playing in the Gallagher Prem.”
