The BBC is an important partner of the WRU and we see this as a hugely positive step for the WRU and the BBC. It is a boost for fans of rugby for years to come where Celtic rugby is concerned.’
Scotland’s and Ireland’s international are also covered by the new five-year deal. The BBC also has the rights to all Six Nations matches until the end of the decade.
