- 1500
Two weeks after his departure from London Irish, the Ospreys have today announced that they have signed fly-half Stephen Myler on a one-year deal.
Myler, who is third on the Premiership’s all-time list of scorers with 1778 points, is a European Challenge Cup and Premiership final winner with Northampton Saints in England. He has more than a decade’s experience of English and European rugby during his time at Franklin Gardens and played more than 300 times for Saints before signing for London Irish in 2018.
He was man of the match in both finals when the Saints completed a historic Premiership and European Challenge Cup double in 2014.
“We have identified positions where we need some strength-in-depth and real quality and experience to bolster the squad," said Toby Booth, Ospreys Head Coach.
Myler had a 100% success rate with the boot in all major finals that he has played in for Northampton, kicking 23 from 23 attempts.
