The province have confirmed a list of nine players who will be moving on this summer.

WILL ADDISON AND DAVE Ewers are both set to leave Ulster at the end of the season, with the province today confirming a list of nine players who will depart this summer.

Addison joined Ulster in 2018 but has been limited to just 41 appearances for the province due to a series of injuries. The 31-year-old also won five Test caps for Ireland between 2018 and 2021.

Billy Burns is leaving to join Munster while Steven Kitshoff is returning to the Stormers.

James French and Shea O’Brien are also set to leave Ulster over the summer.
