Leading the list of new arrivals on Wednesday, July 1, is Springbok scrumhalf Faf de Klerk, who joins the Cheetahs from the Yokohama Eagles in Japan.

De Klerk brings a wealth of international experience and an invaluable presence to the squad.

Outside back Henry Immelman arrives from the Bulls, whilst the Cheetahs have also secured the services of loose forward Simon Muller from Japan’s BlueRevs.

Another addition to the loose-forward stocks is Siya Ningiza, who joins from English club Ealing Trailfinders.
