Ospreys head coach Toby Booth cited the injury to Keelan Giles as a reason to bring in Conbeer, who made 23 appearances for Wales U20 (a record since broken by Morgan Morse), as cover.

“With Keelan currently out injured, it made a lot of sense for us to bring in someone of Ryan’s calibre at the wing position,” Booth said.

“He’s got a proven track record and is someone we still see as having a bright future in rugby.”

Conbeer added: “It’s been really easy to get settled in with the Ospreys. I know a fair few of the boys already but everyone at the club has made me feel welcome since I’ve been here.

“I’m looking forward to stepping onto the pitch with the team and making an impact wherever I can.”

Ospreys get their United Rugby Championship season underway in a Welsh derby against the Dragons at Rodney Parade on September 21.
