BREAKING NEWS: Gatland to lead Lions for third time in South Africa
Departing Wales head coach Warren Gatland will take charge of the British and Irish Lions for a third time.
Warren Gatland has been confirmed as head coach of the British and Irish Lions for the 2021 tour of South Africa.
The departing Wales boss had previously ruled out a third successive stint with the Lions, stating he “hated the press and negativity” he experienced on the tour of New Zealand two years ago.
Yet after masterminding a 1-1 draw with the All Blacks in his homeland, the 55-year-old will lead the Lions in a series against the Springboks – eight years after he was first in charge for a 2-1 triumph in Australia.
