Wynand Olivier has signed a contract of 'undisclosed length' with the Worcester Warriors.

Having made a regular impact during the English Premiership over the past few months, Worcester director of rugby Dean Ryan says Olivier brings 'invaluable experience' to the young squad.

'Wynand has brought some real strength to our midfield and we're delighted he's signed a new deal.'

Olivier has earned nine appearances for Worcester since joining them in October, and scored his first try for the team against the Leicester Tigers in December. 

Olivier last played for South Africa in June 2014, earning his 38th Test cap against Wales.
