Italy prop Danilo Fischetti from Zebre Parma will join London Irish from next season.
The 24-year-old has spent the last four seasons in Parma and has been a regular part of the Azzurri, claiming 20 caps since his first in 2020. In that team, he has played in three consecutive Six Nations tournaments.
Director of Rugby Declan Kidney is anticipating welcoming the prop into the fold in the summer, stating Fischetti will “bolster our front-row options.”
“Danilo will be a welcome presence in our pack and will bring with him a wealth of international experience at only 24-years-old.
“We are very much looking forward to working with him at Hazelwood this summer and he is a welcome addition to our squad.”
“I can’t wait to get started at London Irish,” added Fischetti.
“After speaking to Declan, I knew that the ambitions of the Club match that of my own. I’m looking forward to contributing as much as I can to drive the team up the league table.”
