Pau sign ex-England prop Harry Williams

Pau have announced the signing of former England tighthead prop Harry Williams, as reported by RugbyPass.

The 32-year-old has signed on a one-year deal with an option to extend, and will provide cover for Siate Tokolahi, who ruptured his Achilles in the final game of last season.

Williams left Montpellier earlier this month after only a season at the club, but was not out of employment for long.

“It was a good opportunity to discover another club. I like the stadium, the city and the mountains, I have already had the opportunity to visit Pau with Joe Simmonds. I am looking forward to the start of the season, I am very happy to join the club!”

Pau head coach Sébastien Piqueronies added: “In order to compensate for Siate’s injury, we took the time to identify the profile best suited to our needs and requirements. Harry is an experienced prop who has won titles. This is a strong addition to our project!”
