Romania have bolstered their training ranks with a huge announcement ahead of the 2023 Rugby World Cup.
The Eastern European side have added former Scotland Head Coach Vern Cotter to their staff, with the New Zealander taking up a consultant role.
Cotter is soon to be joining up with the Auckland Blues in Super Rugby, and has plentiful international experience from a coaching perspective.
The 61-year-old has previously held coaching roles with Scotland, taking them through the 2015 Rugby World Cup quarter-finals, as well as a stint with Fiji.
Romania posted a quote from Cotter on their official Twitter page:
“I am glad to be part of Rugby Romania’s World Cup adventure.
“I have been overseeing their preparation since this year’s Rugby Europe Championship and I will be involved as an advisor for the RWC, hoping the Oaks will evolve, play some good games and exceed everyone’s expectations.”
