New Zealand-born flanker Callum Gibbins will join Glasgow on a three-year deal ahead of the 2017-18 Guinness PRO12 season.

Gibbins was a Super Rugby winner with the Hurricanes last season and will link up with the Warriors after his 2017 commitments with them, and his club side Manuwatu Turbos, come to a conclusion.

He has played in 26 Super Rugby games, scoring three tries, while with the Turbos he has been playing under incoming Warriors coaches Dave Rennie and Jason O'Halloran.

The 28-year-old becomes Glasgow's third signing for next season, following Stormers duo Huw Jones and Oli Kebble.

Gibbins said: "I'm excited about the opportunity to start a new journey with Glasgow Warriors in Scotland.
