Josh Murphy is leaving Leinster for Connacht on a two-year deal in the summer with a view to playing more regularly.
Utility forward Murphy, who recently qualified as a doctor, has played 52 times for Leinster and Connacht boss Andy Friend is getting a player who can line out in the second row or back row.
Capped at under-20 level by Ireland, the 26-year-old has started two Heineken Cup pool games this season but is keen to nail down a regular starting spot.
