Former Wales wing Mark Jones will take over as Ospreys head coach at the end of this forthcoming season when Toby Booth will step down.

Booth has been in charge since the summer of 2020 at the Swansea-based team.

Wales and British and Irish Lions back row Justin Tipuric's playing career will also end as the 2024-25 season concludes.

Tipuric will then succeed Jones as Ospreys defence coach.
