The 29-year-old has spent the last six seasons at Ulster, having arrived from Gloucester in 2018, and has made 107 appearances to date.

Since making his Ulster debut, he has gone on to represent Ireland seven times, qualifying through his paternal grandfather. He was handed his first cap by Andy Farrell against Wales in the 2020 Autumn Nations Cup.

Burns will replace Joey Carbery at Munster, who is set to join the Top 14’s Bordeaux-Begles at the end of the season. He will compete with incumbent Ireland fly-half Jack Crowley for the red No10 jersey.

Elsewhere in the Munster squad, prop John Ryan and lock Cian Hurley have both signed one-year contract extensions with the United Rugby Championship winners.

The tighthead prop Ryan, 35, made his Munster debut in 2011, and has gone on to make 217 appearances while also enjoying stints in England and New Zealand.

Academy product Hurley is at the other end of his Munster career at the age of 23, and has only made five appearances so far.

The announcement of Burns’ departure comes just days after Ulster confirmed the signing of versatile South Africa Sevens veteran Werner Kok from the Sharks.

Now fast forward to January 2023 when she came up with the great idea to go into crypto trading, this was supposed to be our game changer, we already accumulated a nice amount of Bitcoin since we started holding so once we invested with that we would make more than enough profits to last us and we won’t have to work anymore, amazing plan until it all went wrong, we invested with the wrong broker company that made away with all of our investments.. the agent blocked us Instagram and disappeared leaving us in the dark but all thanks to Infinite Digital Recovery, getting in contact with Infinite Digital Recovery made it possible that we recovered back our money today, it took him less than 48hours to trace the transactions and accessed the company website database to recover our already hanging funds in our account, it was then we found out they continued trading with our Money and kept generating more profits, very fraudulent act and we made sure to take every penny of ours thanks to Infinite Digital Recovery, You can also reach out to Infinite Digital Recovery for help for anyone in a similar situation, the contact details are below :
