Sale Sharks are delighted to announce the signing of powerhouse prop Karena Wihongi from Bourgoin on a two year deal. Karena is an experienced front row operator, able to use his 125 kilo weight to cause disruption in the tight and the loose. Although born in New Zealand, Karena has French nationality and will no doubt make his international debut this season. Sale Head Coach Mike Brewer said, “ The signing of Karena is great news for the club. He was on my priority list as soon as I was appointed and was delighted when he signed on the dotted line. Karena had a number of offers from various clubs and the fact that he has chosen Sale Sharks is significant."
