Great news for Connacht fans this morning, with the announcement that on-loan second row Quinn Roux has signed a two-year deal at the province, meaning he’ll officially be a Connacht player this summer.
The South African second row joined Connacht on an initial four month loan at the start of the season, which was then recently extended to the summer.
Roux has become an important part of the first team in Galway, and has now penned a two year contract at the province, bringing him up to the summer of 2017.
Connacht coach Pat Lam says the 24-year-old has real potential to become an Irish International one day, adding: “Quinn is someone who has impressed us all massively since he came in during the summer.
“His work ethic and desire to succeed on and off the field was apparent from day one. He has fit in extremely well with the rest of the squad and I know our supporters have really embraced him as well.”
Connacht have also announced a new two-year contract for academy second-row Ultan Dillane, which will tie the Kerryman down to the province until the end of the 2016/17 season.
