Titterrell, an athletic front row who was selected for the 2005 Lions tour to New Zealand, missed just one match for Sale last season.

The 26-year-old, who has won four caps, said: "Gloucester is a fantastic club - one of the strongest and most progressive in Europe - and I'm thrilled to be joining them."

He added: "When I had the opportunity to speak to their coaching team I was hugely impressed with the standard of facilities, their vision for the club and their thirst for success.

"Sale were instrumental in my development as a rugby player and I thank them for that, but this is a new period in my career and I am excited about moving south."

Head coach Dean Ryan views Titterrell as another piece in the jigsaw as Gloucester build a team capable of competing with Europe's elite.

"We are attempting to develop our squad to a level that is capable of challenging anywhere in Europe," he said.

"To have the opportunity to sign a player of Andy's quality is great for us.

"He is an international-quality footballer and the opportunity to sign those sorts of players does not come around that often."
