Gloucester lose Rapava-Ruskin, Tuisue, and Kveseladze to injuries

Gloucester Rugby can confirm that Albert Tuisue, Val Rapava-Ruskin and Giorgi Kveseladze have all suffered season-ending injuries.

Albert Tuisue sustained a significant hamstring injury in the Cherry & Whites game against Leicester Tigers on Sunday 12 March, whilst Giorgi Kveseladze suffered a similar injury on international duty with Georgia.



In-form prop, Val Rapava-Ruskin, will undergo surgery following a knee injury.



Chief Operating Officer, Alex Brown, spoke of his disappointment to lose more key players.



“We’ve been hugely unfortunate this season with the injuries we’ve sustained and losing three more players in such a short space of time is another significant blow to the squad.




“Albert, Val and Giorgi have all played key parts in our season and they’re equally disappointed to be ruled out for the remainder of the 2022/23 campaign.



“They’ve all already started their respective returns with our on-site medical team, and we’re wishing them all a speedy recovery.”
