Taufua must wait

LEICESTER Tigers say Jordan Taufua’s anticipated move to French Top 14 side Lyon has not yet been “resolved”.

Lyon announced on Tuesday that they have signed the 28-year-old as an injury replacement, but Tigers coach Steve Borthwick says it is an “ongoing situation, until it is completely resolved, it’s not one for me to comment on.”

Meanwhile, Leicester lock Tomas Lavanini is to join French side Clermont at the end of the season on a two-year contract.
