Saracens have signed former Leicester and Newcastle prop Logovi'i Mulipola on a three-month contract.

The versatile prop will provide injury cover for Marco Riccioni, Eroni Mawi, Ollie Hoskins and Ralph Adams-Hale.

Director of rugby Mark McCall said: "He has great experience. We look forward to seeing him in a Saracens shirt."

McCall added: "He is already settling in with us in Pretoria and we are confident he will be a great addition to the group."

Mulipola has also played for Gloucester during an 11-year Premiership career which featured nearly 200 top-flight appearances.
