Leicester Tigers prop Logovi’i Mulipola has agreed a move to Newcastle Falcons next season.



Mulipola, 31, joined Tigers in the 2011/12 season and has made 129 appearances for the club in six-and-a-half seasons.



Announcing the move to the North-East, Mulipola said: “I have enjoyed my time at Leicester Tigers. I’d like to thank the fans for being so supportive towards me and, of course, I’ll be giving my all for them until the end of the season.



“After that it’s on to the next challenge and becoming part of something big at Newcastle. I’ll be staying in the Premiership, which is great, and it’s all about the hard work I’ll be putting in.”
