LIST | 3 Positions Leicester Need to Strengthen & the Players They Could Sign to Fix Them

CENTRE

Kieron Fonotia

The 32-year-old Samoa international, who is leaving Scarlets, would make a great signing for Tigers.

His silky passing skills, plus his ability to create time and space with effortless ease, have won him many admirers throughout his career.


George Wacokecoke

Despite the centre signing a new two-year deal with the Falcons back in February, he could be available for Tigers to loan – especially with Newcastle unlikely to play again to late 2020.

The 24-year-old, who was enjoying his breakthrough season at Kingston Park, is a smooth operator who is capable of the spectacular; whether that be a sudden break or a ridiculous offload.


Tom Penny

The 25-year-old, who recently left Quins following a short stint, would offer some relief for Tigers.

Penny is not short of speed, agility, and a defensive line awareness. He possesses attacking flair and is able to break the line to create opportunities outside of him.

He’d also be a fairly affordable compared to some of the other options.
