Sale Sharks lock Cobus Wiese is to leave the club at the end of the season to return to his native South Africa.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The 26-year-old has spent four years with Sale since joining from DHL Stormers in 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

He has played nearly 80 games for the club, scoring five tries.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Cobus leads by example and has earnt the respect and adoration of the group both on a professional and a personal level,” said Sale’s director of rugby Alex Sanderson. <\/span><\/p>\n

“He will be missed by all of us on so many levels.”<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Wildly excitable’<\/h3>\n

As he departs, another South African lock will arrive at the club next season in <\/span>Le Roux Roets<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

But Sanderson highlighted the immense contribution that Wiese, whose older brother Jasper plays for Leicester Tigers, has made to the north west club. <\/span><\/p>\n

“He’s the most polite and courteous of people off the field, but the most wildly excitable man on the field, and on a night out,” Sanderson told the <\/span> club’s website<\/span>external-link<\/title><\/svg><\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

“To say Cobus wears his heart on his sleeve is to do him a disservice with regards to his emotional commitment for which his body has paid the price on occasion.” <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
