Nick Schonert has departed Sale Sharks by mutual consent with immediate effect.

The South African-born prop, 33, has been with Sale for four seasons since joining from Worcester Warriors in 2021.

But he has not played a single game in the Premiership this season after undergoing surgery on an Achilles problem last March.

The last of his 60 Sharks appearances came in the Premiership Rugby Cup in November.

Sale are fifth in the Premiership, two points outside the play-offs, and face defending champions Toulouse away in the Champions Cup on Sunday.
