Clayton McMillan has assured Munster supporters he will not be prevented from making overseas signings for next season despite voluntary redundancies being sought within his organisation.

The first-season head coach outlined the current transfer policy as he signalled the end of Thaakir Abrahams’ stay with Munster beyond this season, admitting he wants to use the South African wing’s Non-Irish Qualified (NIQ) spot on a player in another position.
