Link has always been Hylian, but unlike most Nintendo characters such as Kirby or Mario, Link COULD change. There's no reason for Link not to be a Hylian at some point.
With BotW going open air and having a handglider to get around, many people think this item will persist into the future or at least have other means of quasi-flight, some people assume the Loftwings will come back or more interestingly Link could be a Rito... this would help him get around.
I heard one idea recently where someone floated the notion of another 2d trilogy like the ill-fated Oracles but have Link a different race each time like a Rito, Anouki etc...
But outside of that i think a Gerudo version of Link would be incredibly interesting. In BotW a Gerudo makes mention that the race is still recovering from the fact that Ganon was once a Gerudo. Something which brought the race a lot of prejudice from all over Hyrule.
Having Link as a Gerudo would be an interesting flipside.
Though i dont think we'll ever see a 7'6 dark skinned Link....
But what about other races, would it work and would you like to see it?
