Former Exeter Chiefs and Ospreys tighthead Tomas Francis joined Sharks from Provence in France’s Pro D2, where he had been since leaving Wales in 2023.
York-born Tomas began his career at Malton and North RFC, before being snapped up as a 19-year-old by Doncaster Knights.
He spent a year at Castle Park before switching to London Scottish, and then on to Sandy Park, where he made 120 appearances and was a key part of the side that won the Prem and Champions Cup double in 2020.
He switched South West England for Swansea in 2021 and made 27 appearances for the Ospreys before moving to France.
On the international scene, Tomas made his Wales debut in 2015 and has gone on to win 77 caps, playing in three World Cups. He was a part of the last Welsh team to win a Six Nations Grand Slam in 2019.
Tomas followed Leicester loosehead Nicky Smith to become the second Welsh international prop to agree to a move to Manchester ahead of the 2026/27 season.
