By Ian Cameron
Teenage schoolboy rugby sensation Tyrese Johnson-Fisher has signed for the Bristol Bears.
Johnson-Fisher shot to fame in 2015 after a video of him scoring three tries for Oakham School.
The signing which is set to be announced by Bristol today will see the Johnson-Fisher officially return to rugby union two years after he left the sport to pursue a career in American football.
In January 2018 the sprinter headed to the United States to take part in the Under Armour All-America event, a football camp which brings together the best high school football players in the US and pits them against one another.
However after a year in the US was he released from his college program. The 19-year-old South Londoner has now set his sights on a career in rugby with the Pat Lam coached Bristol Bears.

Except for the 6N he has won nothing. No WC's, no Lions tours not anything. He is ranked even behind Eddie Jones, who has won a WC with SA and have a better victory rate than Gatland. Keep your so called "best coach" in the world. No one but Wales wants him. A very harsh Hell No comes to mind if anyone asks if they would want Gatland as head coach.
Guess the man is wearing blinders. Rob Howley is howling mad describing Gatland as the best. What a load of 💩
Go to commentsProbably partly true but we in fact have plenty of talent, we just get a kiwi coach to put our best team on the field. Just like Deans and just like Rennie. And he keeps changing the team so Australian players can't get settled. Just like Deans and just like Rennie
