Prop Dillon Lewis won the first of his 50 caps for Wales in 2017
Harlequins have signed Wales tight-head prop Dillon Lewis and fly-half Jarrod Evans from Cardiff Rugby ahead of the 2023-24 season.
Lewis, 27, has been capped 50 times by his country, having made his international debut against Tonga in June 2017.
He made his Cardiff debut in 2014 and has appeared 88 times for the United Rugby Championship club since.
"I am over the moon to have signed here," Lewis said.
Harlequins scrum and transition coach, and former Wales prop, Adam Jones, said: "I first saw him playing for the Cardiff Rugby academy eight years ago and I could immediately see that he was going to be a really good player.
"He joins a really talented pool of props at Harlequins and, with great competition for places, they will push each other on."
Evans, 26, has eight Wales caps to his name, the last of which came in July 2021 against Argentina.
The back has kicked 765 points in 126 games for Cardiff since making his first appearance in 2015.
"We are all excited to welcome Jarrod into our environment to add to the talent we have in the fly-half stable," said Harlequins attack coach Nick Evans.
