Saracens have bolstered their front row options with the signature of Australian prop Kieran Longbottom.
The Western Force tighthead, 28, is eligible to play for England and will replace the void left by Matt Stevens in the Premiership finalists’ squad.
He said: “Saracens are recognised as one of the go-forward clubs in Europe, and I’m really looking forward to this opportunity.”
Director of Rugby Mark McCall said: “We are delighted that Kieran and Brigitta have decided to come to London. He has shown up consistently well in our scouting reports, and he will prove an outstanding addition to the squad.”
