Another promising Australian rugby player is headed overseas, with Will Skelton signing a two‑year deal with English Premiership giants Saracens.

The 24‑year‑old Waratahs and Wallabies second‑rower spent two months with the London‑based club ahead of this year's Super Rugby season, playing eight games during the then short‑term deal, and will rejoin Saracens after the current Super Rugby season.

The deal will take him up to the end of the 2019 European season, leaving the door open for Skelton to be a part of the Wallabies' 2019 World Cup plans.

The Hurricanes will face the Waratahs at 7.35pm Friday
