SALE have signed South African lock Le Roux Roets, below, for next season from URC side Sharks. The 6ft 8in player has signed a two-year deal with the Premiership club. Roets will replace Cobus Wiese who is leaving Sale at the end of the season to return to his native South Africa.
Sale boss Alex Sanderson said:
“Roux loves to bang hard and he’ll add that bit more weight and power to our pack.”
Roets said: “I want to be a big presence in the tight five and try and get as much go-forward ball for the team as possible.”
