Scarlets have signed number eight Fletcher Anderson from New Zealand province Crusaders.
The 22-year-old will join Dwayne Peel’s squad in November having won the Super Rugby Pacific title.
He has also three awards for his efforts with Tasman Makos in New Zealand’s top domestic competition, the National Provincial Championship (NPC).
“He’s a powerful, abrasive carrier with a strong work-rate in defence,” said Peel.
“We are excited about what he can offer us and look forward to welcoming him to Llanelli ahead of a massive block of fixtures for us in the URC and Champions Cup.”
