This is despite significant interest from all over the world, with the 33-year-old receiving offers from Major League Rugby, Japan, Leicester Tigers and Edinburgh to name a few.
The region are waiting to confirm the Roberts deal and are also interested in signing Wales-qualified prop Greg Bateman, who left Leicester in July, reports the BBC.
Roberts spent the first six years as a professional in the Welsh capital with Cardiff Blues, and the list of locations he has ticked off since leaving in 2013 have been enviable.
Paris, London and Bath have been his homes over the past seven years.
