Vellacott ready to relocate to Edinburgh
EDINBURGH are speaking to Wasps scrum-half Ben Vellacott about switching to the Scottish capital when his Wasps contract runs out next summer.
Vellacott’s Wasps career has struggled to take off after he suffered a knee ligament injury shortly after moving from Gloucester.
The 25-year-old product of Exeter Chiefs academy is a former Scotland U20 international after qualifying through his mother.
Vellacott has fallen behind
Will Porter and Sam Wolstenholme in Wasps’ pecking order despite making a full recovery and is expected to leave the club this summer.
Meanwhile, Wasps have done a deal to sign former Caldy, Yorkshire Carnegie and Ealing Trailfinders prop Elliot Millar Mills.
The tighthead, 25, moved to Ealing from Edinburgh where he spent a season as understudy to WP Nel and Wasps have moved quickly to snap him up.
