Young backline star Feinberg-Mngomezulu signs long-term contract extension with Stormers

Talented backline ace Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu has signed a contract extension that will see him keep paying his trade with the Stormers until at least 2027.

The former Junior Springbok, now 22, made his Stormers debut in a pressure cooker URC quarter-final in 2022 at the age of just 20. since then, he has proved his worth as a flyhalf capable of playing multiple positions in the backline.

Stormers director of rugby John Dobson was delighted to sign the young gun for the foreseeable future.

"Sacha has been earmarked as a generational talent since he was a schoolboy and it is has been great to see him break through into the senior ranks in the last few seasons.

"Now that his future here is confirmed we are looking forward to seeing him develop further and fulfil the potential that is clear to anyone who has watched him play.

"He has the ability to become a world-class flyhalf and we want to equip him with everything he needs to do just that.

"Our intention is to retain the top talent we have here before looking elsewhere and this is the first of a few announcements that we will make to show how serious we are about continuing this project and keeping the bulk of our current squad together until at least 2027," Dobson said in a statement.
