Wales’ centre George North has confirmed he will retire from international rugby after the Six Nations.
The 31-year-old will make his final appearance for Wales during their match against Italy on Saturday at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
North wrote on X: I’ve decided that the game on Saturday will bring my international career to an end. After 14 years it feels like now is the right time to step away.
“I have loved and cherished every second in a Welsh shirt and been able to play alongside some fantastic team-mates. I’ve been very lucky to have lived my dream.
“I’m excited for the next chapter. Thank you all for your support over the years.”
George made his international debut for Wales at the 2010 end-of-year Tests.
