Tuesday 1 May 2018 10:13, UK
Scarlets have announced the signings of Scotland international Sam Hidalgo-Clyne and his fellow scrum-half Kieran Hardy in a double swoop.
The duo will help provide options at number nine, with Scarlets' first-choice Gareth Davies a Wales regular and his understudy Aled Davies moving to the Ospreys this summer.
Hidalgo-Clyne, 24, joins from Edinburgh, while the 22-year-old Hardy, who came up through the youth ranks at Scarlets and made his professional debut for the region in 2014, has been playing for English Championship side Jersey.
Head coach Wayne Pivac said: "We're delighted to be in a position to welcome both Kieran and Sam to the Scarlets.
"Kieran makes a return to his home region having had a couple of seasons to continue his development in the Championship, with Sam bringing with him a wealth of Guinness PRO14 and international experience from Edinburgh.
"With Aled moving on and Gareth away during the international window it's important to have strength in depth in each position."
