Springbok Etzebeth to join Sharks
Updated | By Newswatch / AFP
The Sharks have finally let the cat out of the bag - World Cup winner Eben Etzebeth will be moving to Durban.
Etzebeth will move to Kings Park from Top 14 club Toulon at the end of the season.
The 30-year-old lock arrived at the French club in 2019, but this season played just once, Saturday's 21-18 win over Top 14 leaders Bordeaux Begles, which moved Toulon off the bottom of the table.
Etzebeth started the season with the Springboks in the Rugby Championship and then played in the autumn internationals in November.
In the last match of the tour, a one-point loss to England at Twickenham, Etzebeth suffered his third concussion of the year.
