The Hurricanes would like to wish lock Michael Fatialofa all the best for his future beyond 2018 after he today confirmed he would be joining English Premiership club Worcester Warriors.
Fatialofa, 25, has played a significant role for the Hurricanes since he joined the club in 2016, helping it win its first Investec Super Rugby title the same year.
The 1.99m Fatialofa suffered a serious knee injury last season but has worked tremendously hard to return and be part of the 2018 campaign as he builds back to his best form.
Hurricanes head coach Chris Boyd said Fatialofa would continue to play a leading role in the squad's progression through the season.
"Michael has been an integral part of the squad during his time at the club, especially in 2016 when we won the title," he said.
"His form that season played a big part in our title win and we know he would like to be part of another memorable season and have a big hand in it. In saying that, we will wish him all the best for his future at Worcester when the time comes."
