Professional career Edit

He played for El Salvador in Spain for the 2018-19 season.[3]

From 2019 to 2021 he then played for North Harbour in the National Provincial Championship in New Zealand.[3]

On 12 October 2021 Fifita signed for Glasgow Warriors. He stated:[4]

I’m pretty stoked to be signed for Glasgow and start this new chapter in my career. I can’t wait to step out onto the field with these guys and I’m really happy. I’m really grateful for the opportunity and I want to thank both my agent and Glasgow for presenting me with it. Coming overseas was a big chance for me – I enjoyed my experience of it in the past when I was in Spain, and I’m looking forward to making more memories. I love to carry the ball and hopefully I can show the fans what I can do on the field.

He made his competitive debut for the Warriors on 8 January 2022, as a substitute in the match against the Ospreys in the United Rugby Championship. Fifita earned the Glasgow Warrior No. 340.[5] He was released by the Warriors in April 2023. He made 3 appearances for the club.[6]
