Glasgow Warriors eye Kebble coup

The Glasgow Warriors in partnership with Scottish Rugby are reportedly looking to sign prop Oli Kebble from the Stormers after the 2017 Super Rugby season.

It is believed that Kebble, the son of former Bok prop Guy, will be contracted as a project player by Scottish Rugby, who have monitored him for several years.

Kebble represented South Africa at the U20 World Championship in 2012 alongside current Scotland prop Allan Dell. If Kebble does join the Warriors' ranks, he will also become eligible to play for Scotland after three years' residency.

To date Kebble has played 34 Super Rugby games for the Stormers and 18 Currie Cup matches for WP.

Dell is one of four South African-born players in Scotland's squad for the 2017 Six Nations. The others are Josh Strauss, WP Nel and Cornell du Preez.
