Albion record-breaker heads to Old Deer Park
Free-scoring fly-half Alex Davies has agreed to move to London Welsh from Plymouth Albion.
The 25-year-old enjoyed a record-breaking campaign with Albion last season as he scored 236 points in 25 Championship appearances.
That tally included a club record equalling 26 points in the win against Birmingham & Solihull, while he set a new best of seven penalties in a game.
Davies, who began his career at the Sale academy, before spells with Waterloo, North Otago and Plymouth, then finished the season by helping Lancashire to the County Championship for a record 21st time.
And Davies, who can also play at full-back, has set his sights on leading the Exiles into the Premiership.
Positive
"The first goal for Welsh is to get promoted and for me personally I just want to play and help the team in any way I can," said Davies, who has been capped by England Counties.
"It's also a really good opportunity to learn from someone like Gordon Ross and for me to develop as a rugby player.
"Last season was pretty positive for me. I really enjoyed it and had some good success with the boot.
"We were pretty unlucky as a team - we lost a few games in the last few minutes. So it was a bit of a difficult season for Plymouth, but when it got into the relegation play-offs we put a few performances together.
"In my first two seasons at Plymouth I only played a handful of games, so to get near enough to a full season and kick as well as I did was really pleasing for me and I just want to continue that and develop."
