GRENOBLE claim they have signed Newcastle Falcons giant Samoan Logovi'i Mulipola who had a loan spell at Gloucester last summer.
Mulipola joined the Falcons in the summer of 2017 after spending seven years playing for Leicester Tigers. He has been a cornerstone of the Falcons charge up the Premiership table.
The 33-year-old opted for a stint at Kingsholm in July rather than wait for the new Premiership season to kick-off after an eight-month lay off.
ProD2 outfit Grenoble tweeted that they had signed the Falcons tighthead a day after Dean Richards insisted that Mulipola hadn't signed anywhere for next season.
