Former Springbok great is unlikely to play for Western Province or the Stormers again

Former Springbok great Schalk Burger will return to Cape Town from England in June‚ which should formally mark the end of his remarkable career.

He also captained the Springboks against the All Blacks in 2015.“I’m going to leave Saracens a happy man. I’ve made great friends here and that’s pretty much the standout feature‚” Burger said.

“In rugby you go through phases where you play well and don’t play well‚ but at the end of the day that’s the by-product. What you care about is the quality of the human and the quality of time we’ve spent together as a club.
