He made his International debut against Argentina Jaguars in June and most recently he played in the game against Georgia in March 2017.

Director of Rugby Steve Diamond said: “Alexandru is a great signing for us, he can play on both sides of the scrum although he is a specialist tighthead.

“He is a big lad at 1.85m, weighing 125kg’s and he will, I am sure, fit perfectly at the Sharks.”

Alexandru, who was at Carrington today meeting his new team mates said: ” This is a great opportunity for me to play in the Premiership.

“I know Vadim Cobilas well and he told me what a great club Sale Sharks are to play for.”
