Tonga wants Israel Folau for the 2023 World Cup in France, hoping he might join his brother John in the squad.

Folau's career is in limbo in the aftermath of his infamous homophobic posts, but his Wallabies career is probably over however his legal battle turns out.

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, former Wallaby and Tongan coach Toutai Kefu, has contacted Folau.

Kefu told Sydney Morning Herald that they would love to have Folau in the next world cup if he is available.
