Fijian backrower Nemani Nagusa has become Newcastle Falcons’ latest signing ahead of the 2018‑19 season.

The 30‑year‑old helped Fiji win their fourth consecutive Pacific Nations Cup title last weekend and will link up with the Falcons later this summer, subject to receiving a work permit.

Capped 16 times by Fiji,10 of those coming within the last year, the 6 foot 2 Nagusa is also an experienced Fijian 7s international who has captained his country in the abbreviated form of the game.

Nagusa has also played for Tasman Makos in New Zealand and joins a Newcastle Falcons squad looking to build on last season’s fourth‑place finish when the new Gallagher Premiership season gets underway.

Nagusa becomes the Falcons’ seventh confirmed signing for next season.
