Joe Hawkins is set to join Exeter after agreeing to join the English Premiership team at the end of the season.
Hawkins came through the Ospreys pathway and has been capped five times at Welsh international level during his time at the region. The young centre has also made 28 appearances for Ospreys in that period.
Head Coach, Toby Booth said:
“Obviously it is a disappointment to lose Joe, he is a player that we have spent a lot of time developing over the last two years.
“A big focus of what we are trying to do is to keep our young talented Welsh players but sometimes this is not possible."
Joe Hawkins said:
“I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Ospreys and I’ve come along leaps and bounds in my time here.
“I have made some great friends here and would like to wish the players and staff all the best for the future.”
The Ospreys would like to thank Joe for his time at the region and wish him all the best in the next chapter of his career.
