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.
