Gloucestershire have signed fast bowler Henry Brookes from Middlesex on a three-year deal from next season.
The 26-year-old initially joined the Bristol club on loan for the beginning of this season but his spell was cut short because of a hamstring injury.
He returned to Middlesex where he will continue until the end of the season at which point he will officially become a Gloucestershire player.
The right-arm seamer hit a career-best innings of 89 as Gloucestershire beat Derbyshire by 10 wickets in April.
"It's been a quiet period for me, but I'm looking forward to getting back out on the pitch and showing people what I can do," Brookes told Gloucestershire's website.
Head coach Jon Lewis added: "I've known Henry for a long time. We toured India together with the England Under-19s back in 2017.
"He was a high-potential fast bowler back then, and we still see him as a bowler with a huge amount of potential now. We don't believe he's anywhere near his ceiling."
