Bristol sign Wales wing Rees-Zammit after NFL dream ends

SPORTS 14.08.2025

Bristol have signed Louis Rees-Zammit following his return to rugby union after the Wales wing gave up on his bid to break into the NFL.

Text size:

English Premiership side Bristol said Thursday that Rees-Zammit was joining with "immediate effect" ahead of the new league season.

The 24-year-old has scored 14 tries in 32 Tests for Wales and was selected for the 2021 British and Irish Lions tour of South Africa.

Rees-Zammit, formerly with rivals Gloucester, said in a Bristol statement: "Bristol Bears was the obvious choice for me.

"The style of rugby the team play -- all about entertaining the fans and growing the game -- perfectly aligns to how I want to play and how I express myself on and off the field."
