- Published
Edinburgh prop Boan Venter will leave the club at the end of the season and return to South Africa to join Lions.
Having signed from Cheetahs in 2020, Venter has gone on to play 96 times for Edinburgh and has also earned eight caps for the Springboks in that time.
"It was a tough decision to leave a club that has become home, but I am excited for the opportunity with the Emirates Lions and to be closer to family," Venter said.
"I want to thank all the Edinburgh fans for their incredible support over the years. I have enjoyed every moment of my time in this amazing city and wearing the jersey.
"I can assure everyone that I will be giving my absolute all for this badge and my teammates right up until the final whistle of the season."
