Wales captains Dewi Lake and Jac Morgan are preparing for their Premiership debuts with Gloucester this Saturday, facing Exeter. The pair, who previously played for Ospreys, announced their move to the English club in December 2025 for the current 2026-27 season.
Lake has been appointed Gloucester's new captain, with Morgan serving as one of his deputies, reflecting the positive impression they have made. The duo were co-captains for Wales during the 2023 World Cup under former coach Warren Gatland.
Both players have expressed their gratitude to Ospreys, acknowledging the opportunities and platform the club provided. They continue to follow their former team, even paying to watch a pre-season game.
Gloucester's environment, including a strong Welsh contingent and a traditional rugby community, has contributed to the pair feeling at home. Morgan noted the city's passion for the club, while Lake highlighted the opportunity to challenge himself in a new league.
