Dean Ryan believes Dragons’ new recruit Tom Griffiths can make a big impact at Rodney Parade next season.
The 23-year-old centre has made the move from Saracens, where he found his chances limited before loan spells at London Scottish and Bedford Blues.
Griffiths has played for England at U20 and U18 level but the Gloucester-born player is also Welsh qualified.
Director of rugby Ryan said: “Tom is a talented young centre who has spent the last four seasons working on his game in the Saracens set-up and also getting valuable game time on loan at London Scottish and Bedford Blues.
“He is keen to now really prove himself, take on a new challenge, and excited by the opportunity at Dragons.
“We’re excited to see how Tom develops in our environment and look forward to him linking up with the squad.”
Griffiths said: “It’s an exciting time for me to join the Dragons.
“I’ve spoken with Dean Ryan and the things he has said are really positive. I feel the potential here is phenomenal so hopefully good things are to come.
“There are some fantastic players here too so I’m looking forward to developing my game and taking the chance I have been given.”
