Sharks bolster lock stocks

In 2012, Koegelenberg enrolled at the Sharks Academy and earned one cap for the Sharks XV in 2013. 

He makes a welcome return to Durban after spending the past two seasons in Italy, playing for Italian club Zebre.

"Gideon is a talented youngster and the time he has spent in Italy has added to his growth and development as a player," said Sharks head coach Robert du Preez.

"He has been training with us for a few weeks now and we are really excited to have him in our mix and to give him a run."
