Exeter have signed former England Under-20 forward Lola Whitley from Gloucester-Hartpury.

The 21-year-old, who can play at lock or back-row, made her debut for the Cherry and Whites in October 2022.

"I feel I need a change and a challenge as a player, and I am looking forward to getting stuck in next season," Whitley told Exeter's website.

Interim head coach Steve Salvin added: "Lola is an England-qualified player who has already come through the Under-20s pathway and was highly recommended by the Under-20s coaches.

"She has all the attributes to play Premiership rugby but just wants the opportunity to play consistently."
