Sebastian considering a switch of allegiance to Wales for World Cup

SCOTLAND international Javan Sebastian is open to switching allegiance to Wales ahead of next year's Rugby World Cup.

Javan Sebastian
The tighthead prop, who left Edinburgh at the end of last season to join Cardiff, has 10 caps for Scotland after qualifying through his father.
However, Sebastian has not played international rugby since July 2024 and missed out on a recall for this year's Six Nations after being left out of Gregor Townsend's squad, leading him to weigh up his options as he targets a Test return.
With his last appearance for Scotland coming in July 2024, the 31-year-old will become eligible for Welsh selection shortly before the 2027 Rugby World Cup, so long as he is not capped again by Townsend in that time.
Raised in Carmarthen, Sebastian came through the Scarlets academy and represented Wales at U16s and U18s level before joining signing a one-year contract with Glasgow in 2015.
