Munster’s transfer business done, says Fitzgerald

With the start of Munster’s RaboDirect Pro12 campaign now less than a month away, chief executive Garrett Fitzgerald insists Munster’s summer transfer dealings have come to an end and the squad will be free to continue their preparations for the new season without disruption.

Having signed South African speedster Gerhard van den Heever at the end of July, Fitzgerald has no more plans to recruit from outside the province in spite of one position remaining under the non-Irish qualified player quota of five.
