Munster have announced the signings of Leinster front-rowers Michael Milne and Lee Barron on two-year deals.

Loose-head prop Milne, 25, and hooker Barron, 23, will switch Irish provinces at the end of the season.

Milne has scored 12 tries in 47 appearances for Leinster since making his debut as an Academy player in 2019.

He represented Emerging Ireland in 2022 and has twice been called up to train with the Ireland senior squad.

Barron represented Ireland at Under-20 level and contributed three tries in 22 appearances since making his bow for Leinster against the Sharks in 2022.

He has spent the past five years at Leinster and scored one try in six appearances so far this campaign.

Versatile Academy prop Kieran Ryan, who has played for Munster 11 times, will move up to a development contract next year and will progress to a senior contract for 2026-27.
