Connacht scrumhalf Matthew Devine set to join rival province

On the move.

Connacht scrumhalf Matthew Devine is set to leave the western province at the end of the season, having agreed a deal with a rival province.

Devine is out of contract and, according to Gerry Thornley in The Irish Times, will make the switch north to Ulster next season.

The 23-year-old academy product has started just two games for Connacht this season, and makes the switch in search of more game time.

Devine was recently named in the Ireland XV squad.
