England Rugby are already making moves to find Eddie Jones' successor as Wales head coach and Kiwi coach Warren Gatland is near the top of their list.

Rugby Football Union RFU's Interim Chief Executive Nigel Melville says he will speak to Warren Gatland and a number of others.

Gatland will step down from coaching Wales at the end of next year's World Cup in Japan after nearly 12 years in charge.

He's also coached two British and Irish Lions tours, including a drawn series with the All Blacks last year.

Jones is contracted until the end of 2021 but there is a clause in his contract pending on England's performance next year.
