Roc Nation Sports announces signing of 26-year old Saracens and England International rugby player Maro Itoje.

The 3-time Six Nations Championship winner is the latest addition to the agency’s growing portfolio in World Rugby. Maro joins a Roc Nation Sports International family that includes Springbok Captain, and Rugby World’s ‘Most Influential Person’, Siya Kolisi, and Top 14 phenomenon, and Rugby World Cup-winner, Cheslin Kolbe. He also joins the likes of Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City), Marcus Rashford (Manchester United), Wilfried Zaha (Crystal Palace), and Romelu Lukaku (Inter Milan). Roc Nation Sports are the exclusive consulting partner of European footballing powerhouse AC Milan.

Roc Nation Sports will manage all areas of Maro’s career, including his on-field contract, effective immediately.

“Maro is such a wonderful personality to have as part of our family. His unparalleled performance on the field, and his
leadership qualities on-and-off it, make him the perfect fit for Roc Nation. His view on society, and the way he articulates that, marred with his dedication to philanthropic work and bettering himself, aligns famously with our company values. We look forward to helping him reach all of his on-and-off field goals and objectives in the future.” Michael Yormark, President of Roc Nation Sports International.
