Exeter Chiefs lock Romana Graham has agreed a deal to join French club La Rochelle at the end of the season.

The New Zealander, 27, has penned a two-year contract with the ProD2 outfit.

"Talking to him, Romana says he is looking forward to coming to France and we feel he will be a real asset to the team," La Rochelle coach Patrice Collazo is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

"His qualities will certainly complement the players we have in the second row, but also give us additional options in this area. We are very pleased that he is joining us for the next two seasons."

Graham joined Exeter from Waikato Chiefs at the start of the current campaign.
