Bulls centre joins Lions

TRANSFER NEWS: Lions have bolstered their midfield stocks with some help from the Bulls.

Franco Naudé will join the Lions on loan from the Bulls with immediate effect.

The 22-year-old only has one Super Rugby cap to his name playing against the Sunwolves in 2017.

The former Hoërskool Garsfontein midfielder established himself as an age-group player and earned his Junior Springbok colours in 2016.

The Lions opened their 2019 Super Rugby campaign with a 25-16 win over the Jaguares in Buenos Aires.

Swys de Bruin's side will next face the Stormers in Cape Town in Round Two.
