Saracens are
delighted to announce that South African prop forward Vincent Koch and Scotland wing Sean Maitland will move to Allianz Park for the start of
the 2016-17 campaign.
Speaking about his move to north London, Koch said: “I am very honoured and privileged to join a champion team like Sarries. Ever since I visited Saracens I just knew that they would be the perfect club for me. I’m really looking forward to join the boys for the upcoming season to begin the hard work for the 2016/17 campaign.”
Maitland, who is currently touring Japan with Vern Cotter’s Scotland side, said: “When I was approached about joining Saracens I had no hesitation in accepting the opportunity to join up with their squad."
"Both players are exactly the kind of characters we think will thrive in our environment, and we are confident they will become key players for Saracens,” commented Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall.
Koch and Maitland will both join on two-year deals ahead of the 2016/17 season.
