Kings boost scrumhalf stocks with major signing

Cape Town - The Kings have secured the services of scrumhalf Stefan Ungerer, who will join the PRO14 side at the end of the Currie Cup season from the Pumas.

The 24-year-old Ungerer rejoins the team after having previously been a key figure in the side that played in their final Super Rugby season in 2017.

The scrumhalf has been one of the standout players in this year’s Currie Cup campaign, having secured a few man-of-the-match performances.

“We are pleased to have Stefan Ungerer returning. He is a quality player who fits well into the plans we have of building a quality side that will compete in the PRO14. We look forward to welcoming him back at the end of the Currie Cup season,” Kings COO Charl Crous said.

Ungerer played for the SA Under-20 team in 2013, and he has previously represented the Sharks in Super Rugby.
