Quins sign Chiefs' Tikoirotuma

Cape Town - Fiji's Aseli Tikoirotuma has signed for Harlequins on a two-tear contract, the English Premiership side announced on Thursday.

"Aseli is one of the most exciting backs in world rugby, and we are delighted that he has signed for us," said Harlequins rugby director Conor O'Shea.

"He comes from a winning culture at the Chiefs, is equally at home on the wing or at centre, and I am sure will fit seamlessly into the way we play here and add to the quality we already have."

Tikoirotuma, 27, will join Harlequins in August when his contract with Waikato-based New Zealand team, the Chiefs, expires.

He has played a key role in the Chiefs' Super Rugby successes in the past two seasons, scoring 11 tries in 33 games, and made his debut for Fiji last year.
