Yannick van der Drift will move from HC Bloemendaal to Real Club de Polo for next season, giving the Spanish side a huge boost for the 2022/23 campaign.

The 25-year-old has won the EHL three times and was a team mate of Polo’s Xavi Lleonart in 2017/18 when they won the title. He has signed for one season with an option to extend to a second season.

Otherwise, Polo’s Javier Cabot has gone to the Belgian club Braxgata, while the Argentine Santiago Tarazona returns to his country to prepare for the World Cup next January.
