Stormers complete double deal

It is reported that the necessary parties have reached an agreement to sign Warrick Gelant and Ben Loader as outside backs for the DHL Stormers.

Outside backs Warrick Gelant and Ben Loader have reportedly finally put pen to paper and will play for the DHL Stormers next season.

According to a report on Netwerk24, negotiations between the relevant parties have been completed and Gelant and Loader are set to join the team in Cape Town for next season.

A 2019 World Cup winner, Gelant played a prominent role for the Stormers in winning the inaugural Vodacom United Rugby Championship, before the 11-Test Springbok joined French Top 14 outfit Racing 92.

Loader is among the London Irish players looking for new homes after the club became the third in England this season to fall into administration.

Capped at U20 level, Loader has yet to play for England at senior level.
