Ackermann to turn back on Gloucester

Ackermann, who joined Gloucester from the Lions in 2017, has become a vital asset for the Premiership club, and ended speculations of a return home by extending his contract at the club in February.

However, according to an article on Rugby Pass, the 28-year-old is in talks with Gloucester about an exit after having secured a two-year deal with the Canon Eagles.
