Bristol Bears have signed Fijian blockbusting centre Kalaveti Ravouvou ahead of their 2023/24 season and will announce it shortly.
Bristol director of rugby Pat Lam has secured the signature of one of Super Rugby Pacific's breakout stars last season, in the form of the tackle-breaking Ravouvou, as he looks to rebuild the focal points of his backline.
Ravouvou, 24, made his Super Rugby debut for the Fijian Drua and dramatically exploded onto the scene as they finished the competition sixth in the standings.
He played the majority of the 2022 Super Rugby season at the inside centre but also wore 13 on some occasions.
The signing of Ravouvou, which is due to be officially announced by the club shortly, comes following reports centre Sam Bedlow is wanted at Sale Sharks while Fijian star Semi Radradra is expected to leave the Bears for French Top 14 side Lyon next season.
