RUMOUR | New club emerges as shock favourite to sign Ross Moriarty

Leicester Tigers have emerged as shock favourites to sign Welsh international star Ross Moriarty according to The Rugby Paper.

The Wales and Lions back rower signed a two-year with the Dragons in 2018, but is out of contract in the summer.

They report that Tigers want to sign the 25-year-old Wales international as they look to add some power to their pack, with Bath Rugby, Exeter Chiefs and Northampton Saints also reportedly taking a look at the big forward.

French Top 14 sides Lyon, Montpellier and Toulon are also said to be interested in the big forward while Pro14 sides Cardiff Blues and the Ospreys have also been linked with the 42-cap international.

Having played for England Under 18 and Under 20, Moriarty made his Wales international debut against Ireland in August, 2015 and has since become a regular.
