But it’s a secret?

Ulster operations director Bryn Cunningham has revealed the northern province have found their new head coach, with Jono Gibbes set to depart in the summer.

But bizarrely, they are unable to name the coach for several weeks, for reasons Cunningham would not go into.

“We are happy but unfortunately we are not able to announce it until a few more weeks,” said Cunningham.

“It was really important to get a bit of solidity in Ulster looking towards next season and the future and we are very pleased about that.

“We have respect for each other’s situation,”

“At this stage it would be disrespectful to go against the wishes of other people so for now we will just keep his name quiet.”

Cunningham also would not say if the new coach was Irish or if he was coming from overseas.
