Their Ulster team-mates expressed "sadness" at the pair's departure, before Sale Sharks rejected reports that they were considering bringing the duo to the AJ Bell Stadium.
On Monday, it was confirmed that Olding will join Brive, who were relegated at the end of 2017-18 after finishing bottom of the Top 14.
