Harlequins have confirmed the signing of former Scotland Under 20 international Mak Wilson.

Wilson will head to Twickenham Stoop after being part of Southern Knights in the Super 6 campaign. He was also a regular starter for Scotland in the Under 20 Six Nations tournament earlier this year.

“I come from quite a small town in Scotland, so to sign with a big English team like Harlequins is something I found extremely humbling, and I’m grateful for the chance to play here.

“When this type of opportunity comes up, it’s something you have to take. I am looking forward to the next challenge alongside exciting coaching and playing staff.

“I want to thank everyone for the help and guidance I’ve received at the grassroots level during my time at Duns and Melrose.

"The help I have received from coaches like Robert Chrystie, who was my Head Coach at Melrose and the Southern Knights, has been invaluable.”

Harlequins are positioned seventh in the Gallagher Premiership table with five wins from 13 games and will face Sale Sharks on 14th August at Twickenham Stoop when the competition resumes.
