When Nche packs down in the Sharks scrum at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium, he is likely to be staring down a bronze medal-winning former wrestler in Kirill Gotovtsev.
The 36-year-old has earned 12 Test caps and represented his country at the 2019 World Cup, before joining Gloucester in 2021, earning a contract extension this year. “It’s something we are looking forward to and I think it will be a good test. Gloucester aren’t playing in the final because they got lucky. You can see the amount of hard work they’ve put in to do well as a unit.”
“We could be the first South African team to win a European title. For us, it would be an amazing reward if we did it.”
