Algar has penned a two-year deal, to begin ahead of next season.
Academy head coach Steve Fox said: “He’s a big and athletic lad with great leg speed.
“He can play front or back row, he’s got great awareness within the game and is so robust. He’s going to be the complete package.”
Algar said: “It’s a really exciting time for me. I just want to work hard and repay the faith they’ve shown in me.”
