Newcastle Falcons have signed Samoan prop Logovi'i Mulipola from Premiership rivals Leicester Tigers on undisclosed terms for the 2018-19 season onwards.

Mulipola, 31, has been with the Tigers since January 2012 when he joined on a short-term deal before signing a permanent contract that summer.

The versatile front-rower, who has played both sides of the scrum for Leicester, has five tries in 95 games.

He has 20 caps for Samoa, the last of which came in November 2016.
