Deysel off to Ulster
Jean Deysel has been granted an early release from his contract with the Cell C Sharks to join Ulster in Ireland.
The 32-year-old flank hasn't featured for the Sharks this season and spent three months on loan with Munster in order to get some game time.
Deysel has six Springbok caps to his name and has been at the Sharks since 2007. In that time, he massed 78 Super Rugby caps and will be remembered for his brutal physicality and bulldozing runs.
The big flank will join Ulster with immediate effect, having signed a two year contract with the Irish club.
Sharks coach Robert du Preez bid a fond farewell to the Sharks stalwart.
“Jean has always been a popular team man and he has made a significant contribution to the Cell C Sharks over the years. He will be missed and we wish him and his young family the very best for this new opportunity undertaken," the coach said.
