Cardiff Blues have confirmed the signing of Damian Welch ahead of the 2017-18 season.
His signing comes just a day after Cardiff Blues brought Jack Roberts back to Wales from Leicester Tigers and he is the second second-row to join, following Franco van der Merwe.
“I’m really looking forward to going back to a club which pretty much started my professional career," said Welch.
“It’s great to be heading back and Danny had a big bearing. He was my coach at Cardiff RFC so I’m really excited about working with him again."
The versatile forward came through the ranks at Wales’ Capital Region and worked with Danny Wilson at Cardiff RFC before making his name at the Scarlets.
