Gloucester have confirmed that South African front rower Jaco Visagie has joined the club on a short-term loan deal.

Visagie links up with the Cherry and Whites from the Blue Bulls in Super Rugby and brings plenty of experience, combining power in the set piece and around the park.

The 26-year old made his senior debut for the Pretoria-based franchise in the 2013 Vodacom Cup, and is now a key part of the Super Rugby squad.

His arrival at Kingsholm boosts the squad’s front row resources following an injury to Franco Marais in the Heineken Champions Cup fixture at Munster.

Director of rugby David Humphreys said: “We’re delighted to bring in someone of Jaco’s calibre to add to our squad on a short-term contract and he will bring a new energy and impetus to the group.

“He’s coming over and he’s excited to test himself within our environment and play in front of the Gloucester Rugby supporters.”
