The Vodacom Bulls have got their sights set on bringing home a former Stormers forward as they reload the roster for the 2025-26 season.
According to Rapport, Scotland international Oli Kebble is in advanced talks to join the Pretoria-based union as they look to bolster their front-row stocks. The 33-year-old loosehead prop currently plays for French club Oyonnax, having joined them in 2024 after a seven-year stint with Glasgow Warriors.
Kebble represented Western Province and the Stormers from 2012 to 2017 before heading abroad. He made his Test debut for Scotland in 2020 after qualifying on residency, and earned 12 caps, the last of which came in 2022.

Meanwhile, loosehead prop Simphiwe Matanzima could be on his way out of Loftus, with the Sharks reportedly lining him up as a replacement for the injured Trevor Nyakane and Ntuthuko Mchunu (Stormers).
While Matanzima struggled for game time last season due to a heart-related illness, he featured in the Bulls’ Vodacom URC playoff matches against Munster and Glasgow.
Rapport says a move to Durban would hinge on the Sharks paying a significant transfer fee.
