Transfer Rumours: Could another Wasps star be leaving…

All Blacks fly-half Lima Sopoaga has asked to leave Wasps after ‘failing to settle’ in the Premiership, according to The Times.

He’s given little indication he wanted out of his three-year deal after one season during a recent interview when he highlighted his excitement for the summer arrival of fellow Kiwis Malakai Fekitoa and Jeff Toomaga-Allen.

“Next season I’ve got one of my best mates Malakai Fekitoa coming to the club,” Sopoaga said at a Gallagher ‘Train with your Heroes’ session at Kenilworth RFC.

“I know him well, probably too well sometimes! He will have a huge impact here, I know the kind of guys he is, he’s pretty serious when it comes to his rugby but then he loves a laugh off it as well.

“I’m really looking forward to hearing him screaming at me from the outside next year!

“There’s another kiwi in Jeff Toomaga-Allen coming as well so I just want to have a great off-season, chill out for a little bit and then come into the Prem next year bigger and better for the experiences I’ve had.

“I just want to help the team be successful, that’s all you can hope for, to help your club get a trophy at the end of the year.”
