Career
He made his move to England in 2013, having a trial with Leicester Tigers, after Freddie Tuilagi suggested him to Director of Rugby, Richard Cockerill. He was later signed for the 2013–14 Season. He can play on both sides of the scrum.
England
Mulipola joined Leicester Tigers for the 2013–14 Aviva Premiership, and immediately established himself as a top player for the side, making his first team debut against London Wasps, where he came off the bench and made a huge impact into the Tigers squad. He has continued to gain first team appearances and was rewarded with his efforts by receiving Goldsmiths Player of the Month for February. He scored his first try for the club during a game against Gloucester.
New Zealand
This only became clear to Leicester Tigers after they signed him after his trial with the club. Leicester have only secured Mulipola's services for the rest of the 2011–12 campaign after he impressed on trial, and they are a long way down the road to tying him up on a long-term contract. Mulipola has issued a plea to the Kiwi club he is due to join in June to let him stay at Welford Road instead.
International Play
Mulipola made his debut for Samoa against Papua New Guinea on 18 July 2009 and represented Samoa in the 2011 Rugby World Cup, where he came off the bench for 2 minutes against 2007 Rugby World Cup winners South Africa.
