Exciting times in the rugby world! Young talent Jonny Green, the former Wales U20 lock, has just inked his first senior contract with Harlequins. The 21-year-old has been making waves across the rugby scene, having been part of the Quins’ academy since 2022. Now, he’s ready to take on the Gallagher Premiership with full force.
Jonny shares his excitement: “Extending my future with Quins is a proud moment! Growing up watching them, it’s a dream come true to play for such a prestigious club.”
Despite some interest from Welsh clubs, Jonny decided to stay in England, showing his commitment to the Harlequins. However, the promising player has expressed a strong desire to don the Welsh jersey, inspired by his family roots in Gowerton, West Wales.
Meanwhile, there’s a buzz around Ospreys’ wing Tom Florence. Spotted touring Ealing Trailfinders’ facilities, the young dynamo’s future seems wide open as his contract with the Welsh region nears its end. Could a move to London be on the horizon, or will he join his teammates at Gloucester? Time will tell!
In other heartening news, South Africa’s talismanic captain Siya Kolisi is set for a homecoming, returning to the Stormers next summer. After stints with the Sharks and Racing 92, Kolisi is thrilled to return to Cape Town, reuniting with family and mentoring the next generation of talent. “This move allows me to be close to my family while giving back to the team and supporters who shaped me,” Kolisi shared with passion.
