Munster gain another prop option as Roman Salanoa returns to training

Salanoa’s return is much-needed good news given the lack of available players following Munster’s troubled trip to South Africa

Munster have welcomed back another front-rower to their ranks ahead of Sunday’s Heineken Champions Cup opener at Wasps with the return of Roman Salanoa to training.

Salanoa, 24, has made just seven appearances since joining from Leinster in the summer of 2020 but the Hawaiian-born, 125kg tighthead prop has recovered from a knee injury that has kept him sidelined for the season so far.
