Overview
- Jamie Ritchie agreed Tuesday to join Glasgow this summer, with multiple outlets reporting a two-year deal.
- Glasgow are reshaping the squad as internationals Jack Dempsey, Adam Hastings and Huw Jones depart at the end of the season.
- Head coach Franco Smith has also added South African back-row Ruwald van der Merwe and Australian utility back Bayley Kuenzle for next season.
