Former Bok prop reportedly on the move

Seven-Test Springbok Ruan Dreyer from the Lions is, if a report is to be believed, on his way to the coast.

The Sharks have reportedly hashed out a deal to boost their options in the front row with a move for veteran campaigner Ruan Dreyer from the Lions.

According to a report by RugbyPass’ Fissler Confidential, the seven-Test Springbok tight head prop has agreed to a two-year contract with the 2023/24 Challenge Cup champions.

It is understood that the 33-year-old is in advanced talks about securing an early release from his current deal with the Pride.

Dreyer rejoined the Lions in July 2020 after an injury-plagued two-season stint with the English Premiership outfit Gloucester.
