England number 8 Billy Vunipola is reportedly wanted by FOUR clubs with his time at Saracens expected to end in the summer.
According to Midi, both Brive and Racing 92 have contracted the powerhouses agent over a possible move to the Top 14.
RUCK sources meanwhile suggest that Bristol Bears boss Pat Lam wants Vunipola to move to Ashton Gate next season and has already spoken to the player face-to-face about a potential move.
According to The Daily Mail, Japanese club Tokyo Sungoliath are also interested in signing the soon-to-be-out-of-contract 30-year-old.
“I think in terms of Saracens, we’ve done everything we can do with them,” Vunipola told The Big Jim Show podcast.
“In terms of wanting to experience something new, I’m definitely open to it. This is a big year for everyone involved with England and Saracens.
“I want to get picked for England. I want to play for England. After that we can see where we are.
“In terms of experiencing France, Japan or Super Rugby [I’m interested]. My wife’s Australian. It’s definitely something that I’ve thought about before but I’ve never done. I mean I’m thirty now. Now would be the right time to pull the trigger on something like that.”
