Transfer News: England U20 and Sale Sharks star makes shock departure

London Irish can today announce the signing of George Nott for the 2019/20 Gallagher Premiership campaign.

The Welsh born forward, who can play in the second row and back row, joins the club from Sale Sharks where he has made 36 appearances including 14 in the Premiership.

The former England U20 second row, who made his Premiership debut in February 2017, linked up with the London Irish squad last week.

Commenting on his decision to sign for the Exiles, George said: “I am excited to have made the move to London Irish and have enjoyed my first week at the club.

I am looking forward to putting on the jersey and representing London Irish this season.”

London Irish director of rugby, Declan Kidney, commented saying: “George is a strong addition to our squad and will add to the competition for places as we edge towards the start of the season.”
