The 27-year-old Odendaal‚ who captained the Bulls earlier this year in Super Rugby before the competition was suspended‚ leaves Loftus at a time where Director of Rugby Jake White has been busy rebuilding the team behind the scenes.“Burger has poured a lot of himself into the Bulls family over many years and for that we are eternally grateful. He is a great guy that has had an impact on many players at Loftus‚ and I have no doubt that he will do really well at the Lions.
Odendaal started his professional career at Loftus in 2012 and made his debut in the Vodacom Cup a little before turning 20. He is also one of the few current players to have surpassed the 50-cap mark in both Super Rugby and the Currie Cup.
