Promising flyhalf Siya Masuku is one of seven rising stars to put pen to paper on an extension with the Cheetahs.

Masuku and fellow playmaker Reinhardt Fortuin have both extended their stay in Bloemfontein, along with centres David Brits and Evardi Boshoff, fullback Cohen Jasper, wing Daniel Kasende and scrumhalf Brenden de Kock.

The Cheetahs also secured the services of locks Mzwanele Zito and Siba Qoma from November, while wing Munier Hartzenberg will join from Griquas, and utility back Siba Xhamlashe has signed from Western Province.

Also, Marko Janse van Rensburg from US Major League Rugby outfit Rugby ATL will become the third overseas-based signing for Hawies Fourie’s side this week.
