All Blacks fullback Damian McKenzie has confirmed his return to the New Zealand rugby scene, confirming he's back for Waikato and the Chiefs on a deal until the end of 2023.

McKenzie announced his return after spending this season in Japan playing for Tokyo Sungoliath.

McKenzie returns to the Chiefs with 95 Super Rugby caps to his name and hopes to bring up his 100th game with them next season but in the mean time he will turn his attentions to playing for Waikato in the NPC.

Chiefs coach Clayton McMillan said he was stoked to have the 40-Test playmaker back.
