"We cannot stress the importance of reaching this landmark agreement with one of the best talents in South Africa at the moment," Bulls Director of Rugby Jake White said.

"It is not often that, in this competitive era, we see players committing to long-term contracts like Elrigh has done.

"This is important not only for the Bulls, where Elrigh is set to grow and become an integral part of the team, but also for South African rugby.

"We believe that Elrigh is a certain future Springbok, who can go on to play many test matches for the Boks.

"It is also great to see such talent choosing to remain in South Africa despite being sort after by some of the top clubs globally."
