BREAKING: Gloucester confirm the signing of FIVE former London Irish stars

Gloucester Rugby have announced the signing of five new players from London Irish ahead of the 2023/24 Premiership season.

Gloucester Rugby Head Coach, George Skivington, is pleased to be able to bolster his squad.

“With James coming in to run our attack next season, it made sense for us to take a look at some of the Irish boys when they became available as these are players he’s worked with for a few years.

“He knows the ability and potential they have, and they understand the way in which he wants to play, so it was a no-brainer.”
