Harlequins have been teasing the Stoop faithful over the past day with news of a ‘huge delivery’ taking place. Well, after boarding the plane to France and ending up in Montpellier, Harlequins have confirmed the recipient of their very own Harlequins shirt.
Being creative with their transfer news, Harlequins have now confirmed that the ‘huge delivery’ was for a certain Samoan international prop, Titi Lamositele.

The 29-year-old dual international will join the Twickenham-based side ahead of the 2024/25 Gallagher Premiership season as he looks to strengthen a Quins scrum that is set to lose Will Collier.
Lamositele has spent much of his international career playing for the USA, but after a three-year absence from the international squad, he pledged his international rugby allegiance instead to Samoa.
🇬🇧 See you in Twickenham soon, Titi!

Commenting on his move to The Stoop, Lamositele said: “I’m excited to be joining Quins. I’ve been impressed with the rugby they have played this season, and I can’t wait to return to the Premiership and link up with my new teammates. I’ve enjoyed my time in France but I’m excited for this new chapter and I can’t wait to pull on the Quarters and play in front of a packed Quins crowd.”
Director of Rugby Billy Millard added: “I’ve known Titi since my time coaching with USA Rugby and I’ve followed his progress closely throughout his career. He’s a very experienced and dynamic tighthead, who has achieved great success at club and international level and brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to our front-row. He’s a hard-working, tough ball carrier, who adds plenty of power to our scrum and will be ready to make a good impact next season.”
