Saracens have confirmed that Vincent Koch will be leaving the club at the end of the season to join Premiership rivals Wasps.
The World Cup winning tighthead recently made his 100th appearance for the Men in Black and has won a European Champions Cup trophy as well as two Premiership titles during his five years at StoneX Stadium.
Koch had these words for everyone at Saracens.
“Saracens has been my home for almost five years and together we have won numerous trophies. It’s here that team mates became friend and friends became family.
"I will always cherish the special memories I made at Saracens and will leave StoneX with only love in my heart."
