Harlequins add to scrum-half competition by signing Charlie Mulchrone

Harlequins have added Worcester scrum-half Charlie Mulchrone to their squad for the 2016-17 season.

Mulchrone, who is qualified to play for England and Ireland, has played 42 times and scored nine tries since joining the Warriors from Rotherham in 2014.

He said: "I'm delighted to be joining such a prestigious club as Harlequins. The brand of rugby is one I am a huge advocate of and players seem to play with a smile on their face.

"There are so many quality players in the squad and I am looking forward to contributing to their success going forward. I would like to thank Worcester Warriors and will continue to give my all to the club until the end of the season."

Harlequins head coach John Kingston said of the 25-year-old: "We have been monitoring Charlie for a couple of years and are very excited to finally be able to bring him to Harlequins next season. 

"He fits perfectly with the style of nine we need at the club and I am sure he will push on very quickly within our structure working alongside Danny Care and Karl Dickson."
