Rising second row set to leave South Africa
Leinster are set to announce the signing of Stormers lock Quinn Roux, according to reports in South Africa.
The 21-year-old played a key role in helping Western Province to the Vodacom Cup title.
That form saw the emerging star make his Super Rugby debut in the 19-14 win over the Bulls at Loftus Versfeld.
However he is now set to make the switch to the Heineken Cup champions, with Leinster having been keen to bolster their second row options following the departure of Brad Thorn.
Leinster have already recruited Tom Denton from Leeds, with the likes of Leo Cullen and Devin Toner already established at the club and Mark Flanagan coming through the ranks.
Roux would be the latest rising star to quit South Africa for Ireland, with Bulls back-rower CJ Stander having opted to join up with Munster.
