Foasiliva to remain a Warrior

Worcester Editorial 28th Apr, 2017   0

SAMOA international Alafoti Faosiliva has singed a new contract to remain at Warriors.

The 31-year-old arrived at Sixways last summer and has gone on to score two tries in 15 appearances.

Faosiliva spent much of his early career on the international Sevens circuit and was part of the Samoa side which won the IRB Sevens World Series in 2009/10.

The powerhouse then had a spell at European giants Toulon, before spending three seasons with Bath.




Faosiliva has won 21 international caps for Samoa and made two appearances for his country at the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

“I’m delighted to be staying at Sixways as I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time at the club,” said Faosiliva.


“We’re building a very good squad at Warriors and I’m excited about the future,” he added.

Director of rugby Gary Gold said: “Foti is someone who possesses huge power and the ability to break the gain line, so he’s a fantastic player to have in our squad and we’re delighted he’ll remain at Sixways next season.”
