MUNSTER HAVE CONFIRMED this evening that hooker Eoghan Clarke has joined Saracens.
The 26-year-old makes the move to the English Premiership side on an 18-month contract.
Clarke rejoined Munster in November 2023 in the wake of Championship side Jersey Reds going into liquidation.
He had previously spent three years in the Munster Rugby Academy from 2018-21.
Since rejoining the province, Clarke scored two tries in 16 appearances for Munster.
A former Ireland U20 international, Clarke had first joined the Munster Rugby Academy after emerging initially at CBC Monkstown in Dublin.
Everyone at Munster Rugby wishes Eoghan Clarke the very best for the future as he departs the province this week.

The hooker made 16 appearances for Munster, including two this season, and has made the move to Saracens.#SUAF 🔴
Fair play to him. He came back to Munster when they were in a tricky spot at hooker with injury and didn’t let them down, couldn’t ask for much more than that
Very underrated club player. Always did the job asked of him. Shame to lose him.
Good player, Great darts
This says a lot about how bad munster are, they can’t afford to lose IQ players. Shocking
@graham crosby: They literally announced contract renewals and new signings yesterday, including at hooker.
@graham crosby: Munster are well stocked at hooker next season. The two Barrons, Scannell & Sheahan. Good luck to the lad though, wish him well.
@graham crosby
How many hookers do you think a club needs?!
