Allan Dell has left Glasgow with immediate effect after the experienced loosehead was released from his contract “to pursue new career opportunities”.

The South Africa-born 32-year-old managed just 12 appearances in two and a half years at Scotstoun after joining from London Irish in 2022.

Dell, who won 34 Scotland caps between 2016 and 2022, told the Warriors website: “I’d like to say thank you to the club for the last couple of seasons, and I have got nothing but best wishes for everyone at Scotstoun.

“Hopefully I will be back in the stands with the supporters soon, and I look forward to catching up with the Warrior nation over a beer or two in the future.”

Glasgow will be bidding to secure the 1872 Cup for the third year running at Murrayfield this Saturday when they defend a 33-14 advantage over Edinburgh following Sunday’s first leg at Hampden.
