Aviva Premiership: Saracens sign France hooker Christopher Tolofua

Saracens have announced the signing of France international hooker Christopher Tolofua.

He has agreed a two-year deal and will move to Allianz Park from Toulouse after the 2016-17 Top 14 season finishes.

Tolofua, 22, won the last of his four caps in 2014.

"I have spent a long time at Stade Toulousain, so joining another squad is a very big move for me, and I know I could not find a better team than Saracens," he said.

"I'm excited to play in England next season and test myself in the Aviva Premiership.

"The recent past of Saracens speaks for itself, and I am very proud to be joining such a good club with great coaches and great team-mates."

Saracens won the Premiership and European Champions Cup last term, and Mark McCall's men launch their league title defence on Saturday with a Twickenham clash against Worcester.
