Worcester Warriors are delighted to today announce the major signing of Scotland international and British & Irish Lions prop Euan Murray.
The front row star – who has made 47 appearances for Scotland – is widely regarded as one of the most fearsome and talented props in European rugby and will make the move to Sixways next month from Newcastle Falcons.
Murray has vast experience in the Aviva Premiership having enjoyed successful playing spells at both Northampton Saints and the Falcons.
The Glasgow-born prop – who stands 6ft 1in and weights 18st 8lbs – has spent the last two months on loan at French Top 14 outfit Agen.
The 32-year-old has also impressed on the international stage and been a cornerstone of the Scotland pack since making his debut against Romania in Bucharest in 2005.
Murray’s outstanding performances earned him a place on the British & Irish Lions tour to South Africa in 2009 and he featured for Scotland in both the 2007 and 2011 Rugby World Cups.
Murray said: “I’m really excited about getting involved with the Warriors. I have done a fair bit of research and I realise that the club is definitely going in the right direction. It’s an impressive team sheet so I am looking forward to starting at Sixways.”
