WASPS have signed an England Saxons forward for next season.

Matt Mullan has joined from Worcester Warriors as Wasps aim to boost their front row options.

The 25-year-old was capped by England in 2010 but injury slowed his progress. However, he returned to the international arena during England's tour to South Africa last summer and is now part of the Saxons squad.

Mullan said: “I have had a great eight years at Worcester and leaving your home town club is always hard.

"However I felt the time was right for a new challenge and I am looking forward to joining up with Wasps next season. As a club with lots of other aspiring young English players, I hope to be part of a successful side there in the coming years.”

Wasps cirector of rugby Dai Young said: “Matt’s achieved plenty in his career to date but I believe there is a lot more to come from him.

"He will add to our growing base of young English talent at London Wasps and we’re pleased he will be with us from next season.”
