Munster have confirmed that Malakai Fekitoa will join the province from Premiership side Wasps ahead of the 2022/23 season.
The Premiership club have also confirmed the departure of Jimmy Gopperth, who is rumoured to be heading to Leicester Tigers.
Fekitoa, World Cup winner with the All Blacks in 2015, the 29-year-old can play in either centre position and has signed a two-year contract with Munster.
On the international front, he now represents his native Tonga. Following the devastating tsunami that hit the country last month, Malakai is raising funds to help those affected.
