Kings sign Lions centre Mnisi

The Southern Kings have continued to build their squad for next season with the signing of Lions centre Howard Mnisi.

The 29-year-old has struggled with injuries over the past two seasons and has made the move to Port Elizabeth after not being included in the Lions’ Super Rugby squad this year.

Mnisi will bring plenty of experience to the Kings’ midfield, having helped the Lions reach the Super Rugby final in 2017 and 2018, while also playing for the South Africa A team against the English Saxons in 2016.

Mnisi joins former Sharks flyhalf Courtney Winnaar and Jersey Reds lock Jerry Sexton, who have signed for the franchise.
