Ulster have confirmed the signing of Jean Deysel from Super rugby side the Sharks.

The 32 year old back row has spent the last 3 months on loan at Munster as injury cover in the second row.

The South African forward has featured prominently in the final stages on Munster’s season and came off the bench for Tommy O’Donnell early in the second half of the loss to Starlets in the PRO12 Final at the Aviva last Sunday.

He’s been capped four times by the Springboks at blindside flanker.
