Saracens have continued their recruitment drive ahead of next season’s Championship campaign by signing Ealing Trailfinders centre Harry Sloan.
The 26-year-old has spent the past two seasons at Ealing, but joins Saracens as they look to bolster their ranks.
The club, who were relegated from the Premiership this year, are currently restructuring their squad for life in England’s second tier and announced the signing of fly-half Will Hooley on Tuesday.
Sloan will provide competition at centre and help fill the void left by the likes of Wales international Nick Tompkins, who is due to join Dragons.
“It was a brilliant opportunity for me to join the club,” said Sloan. “They've got a real rich success and a great culture and it was a pretty easy decision.
“My ambition is to get back playing Premiership rugby, I was lucky enough to go to Ealing and get some games under my belt which was always a problem with a few injuries in the past.
“I’ve kicked on a bit and I feel like Sarries is the best place for me to develop and hopefully perform to the ability I want to perform to.”
Director of rugby Mark McCall added: “We’re excited to welcome Harry to Saracens.
"He is another player with experience of the both the Premiership and the Championship, and has a real desire to show that he belongs at the top level.
“This is a great opportunity for him to progress his game and we will do all we can to support him to that end.”
