George Merrick signs two-year deal with Clermont

Harlequins' George Merrick has signed up with Clermont Auvergne for 2 seasons (plus an optional one) and will join the club from next July.


"George is an experienced player who knows the English championship where he has been playing for many seasons," commented Franck Azéma.

"He is a hard-working, consistent and steady player we rely on to enter the rotation with the current players at the club. It will be a reinforcement of weight in the second line where the players are very exposed and where some can also be solicited by the national selection. We are very happy to have found an agreement to join the club from next season."

The 26-year-old made his Harlequins debut in the 2013 London Double Header and went on to make 43 appearances for Harlequins, scoring two tries.

After six seasons with the Harlequins, Merrick will wear the colors of Clermont Auvergne until June 2021 (option 2022).
