Munster fans dub new boy Edwin Edogbo the 'real deal' after lighting up Thomond Park

Munster fans may have a new favourite player with Edwin Edogbo dubbed the 'real deal'.

The Munster new boy made his debut earlier this season and was ferocious in their 31-17 victory.

The Cobh man stands at six foot five inches tall and over 19 stone and could be a feature in the Munster team for years to come if early performances are any indication.

The hard hitting lock was ever present in the win and is just 19 years of age and has been touted as a future Ireland star.

Munster fans were raving about the teenager, with one saying: "This lad is the real deal. Lucky to have him"

While another said: "The fact Edwin Edogbo is only 19 and is someone Leinster will have to prepare to nullify next week is a credit to him."

And another added: "Edwin Edogbo had another big match."
