Fresh off on the heels of revealing the signing of James Whitcombe from Leicester Tigers, Edinburgh have also announced the signing of tighthead prop Rhys Litterick from Cardiff Rugby on a two-year deal.

Litterick, who has a Glasgow-born grandfather, said: “I’m really looking forward to making the move to Edinburgh this summer. It’s a huge club full of quality players who pride themselves on their set piece and physicality, which is something I want to be a part of and learn from. As a tighthead, I take a lot of pride in my set-piece and working hard around the pitch.

“I want to keep improving as a player and learning as much as I can from the coaches and the boys around me. There’s a great setup in Edinburgh and I’m keen to take full advantage of that.”

Edinburgh are bidding to get their push for the URC play-offs back on track on Friday night when they face Zebre in Italy in a match brought forward due to the funeral of Pope Francis on Saturday.

A last-gasp defeat at home to the Sharks last weekend left Sean Everitt’s side 11th in the table and facing a scramble to get back into the top eight over the next three games.

Hamish Watson and Darcy Graham both return to the starting XV after being rested, while academy winger Jack Brown is handed his first professional start.

“This is a really important fixture for us as we look to bounce back from the Sharks game,” said head coach Everitt. “We know Zebre are a talented side, and they’ve shown they can be very strong at home.

“It’s vital that we go to Parma, put in another strong performance and maintain momentum as we enter the business end of the campaign.”

Leinster cleanse palette with record URC scoreline against Zebre

My name is Solenn Bonnet, and I am a single mother navigating the challenges of raising my two-year-old child while trying to make ends meet. I came across a trading platform that promised astonishing daily profits of 18%. The allure of such a high return on investment was too tempting to resist, and I found myself drawn into cryptocurrency trading. Excited by the prospect of financial freedom, I invested a significant amount of my savings, totaling over 5.7 BTC. However, what started as a hopeful venture quickly turned into a nightmare. The platform was a scam, and I lost everything I had invested. The emotional toll of this loss was immense; I felt devastated and helpless, struggling to provide for my child and keep up with my bills. In my desperate attempt to recover my funds, I sought help from various recovery experts. Unfortunately, I encountered numerous fraudulent individuals who claimed they could help me retrieve my lost money. Each time I reached out, I was met with disappointment and further scams, which only deepened my despair. Last year was one of the most challenging periods of my life, filled with anxiety and uncertainty about my financial future. Feeling overwhelmed and at a loss, I confided in a close friend from church about my situation. She listened compassionately and shared her own experiences with financial difficulties. Understanding my plight, she introduced me to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, a group of skilled hackers known for their expertise in recovering lost funds. Skeptical yet hopeful, I decided to reach out to them as a last resort. Their services came at a higher cost, but my friend generously offered to help me with a partial payment. I was amazed by how quickly they responded and began the recovery process. Their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire ordeal. To my relief, they successfully recovered more than I had lost to those heartless scammers. This was truly transformative, and I felt a sense of relief and gratitude that I hadn’t felt in a long time. I strongly encourage anyone who has faced similar challenges or fallen victim to scams to reach out to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. If you’ve invested in a fraudulent platform like I did, they are highly capable of helping you reclaim your hard-earned money. Don’t lose hope; there is a way to recover what you’ve lost.
