Bath Rugby have announced the signing of Fijian scrum-half Nikola Matawalu from Glasgow Warriors for the 2015-16 season.

Matawalu is a thrilling young talent who has scored 22 tries in 59 appearances for Glasgow.

A quick, creative and astute operator, the 25-year-old has represented Fiji 21 times on the national stage, in both the full 15 and the Sevens sides.

Matawalu said: “I’m really happy to be joining Bath next season. They are a very ambitious club with a very talented squad and coaching team.

“I’m looking forward to getting settled in and testing myself in the Aviva Premiership and top flight of Europe, but for the remainder of the season my focus will be with Glasgow.”

Bath head coach Mike Ford added: “Niko is an incredibly talented and exciting young player, and we’re eager to see his skill-set worked into our attacking style of play.

“He’s a great character, and we know he’ll fit in really well at the club.”
