Ulster have confirmed the signing of Zimbabwean second row Eli Snyman on a two-year deal.

The 29-year-old will join the province in the summer when he leaves Italian side Benetton.

The Blue Bulls graduate rejoined Benetton in 2023 for his second spell at the club after a successful season at English Premiership side Leicester Tigers.

Snyman becomes the first signing since Rory Best was appointed general manager of Ulster.

“He is a player with a really strong and unique physical profile and, at 29 years of age, is very much in the peak years of his career,” Best told Ulster Rugby’s social media after the announcement.

“We have a number of talented young locks coming through who will really learn a lot from his leadership and experience he has gained over his career.

“I’m sure supporters will be as excited as I am to see the authority and commanding presence he will bring to our forward pack, as we look to challenge in both the URC and European competitions.”
