Hot on the heels of the Bulls announcing that Jan-Hendrik Wessels, Johan Grobbelaar and Ruan Vermaak had extended their contracts with the Pretoria-based team comes the news that promising back David Kriel has also put pen to paper on a contract extension.
The utility back, who has become something of a midfield regular for the Bulls this season, will remain in Pretoria until at least June 2027. He is also comfortable at wing and fullback.
The 25-year-old former Grey College pupil has made 97 appearances for the Bulls since joining in November 2020.
Higher goalsSince I was a young boy, I have always wanted to play for the Bulls, to play for this prestigious and successful club, said David Kriel on Wednesday.
Pretoria is home and I enjoy the people in this city, and most importantly my teammates; I enjoy them and I love working with them. I believe in the project that we are building and want to work harder and strive for higher goals.
It was easy to choose to stay because I am living out my lifelong dream and I am enjoying it, to keep on chasing the Springbok dream and hopefully will achieve it over the coming years.
I am looking forward to the growth of the squad as a whole, us working together to reach our goals and set higher goals and win a couple of trophies to bring them back to Loftus Versfeld.
