Big injury setback for new Wales squad member

By Online Editors
Tuesday 26 Nov 2019

NEWS: Cardiff Blues have confirmed that Willis Halaholo suffered an acute anterior cruciate ligament injury during last Saturday’s European Challenge Cup clash with Leicester Tigers.

The centre will undergo surgery next week and will then begin his rehabilitation process with the region’s first-class medical team.

The injury precluded Halaholo from linking up with the Wales squad on Monday.

Scott Williams has been called into the squad as his replacement.

Halaholo was one of two New Zealand-born players included in Wayne Pivac's first Wales squad to face the Barbarians in Cardiff this weekend.

The other Kiwi is Johnny McNicholl.
