Robbie Henshaw to join Leinster after Connacht departure

Leinster have also secured the signature of an ex-Munster second-row.

Robbie Henshaw has chosen to leave Connacht for Leinster this summer, on signing his first Irish Rugby Football Union (IRFU) national contract.

Leinster and the IRFU confirmed Henshaw's long-predicted move to the Dublin-based province, on a three-year deal to run beyond the 2019 World Cup in Japan.
