Bath have already stretched the purse strings for their new marquee signing Russell, but they are also looking to add to their front row.

Springbok international Thomas Du Toit has been linked with the Premiership club who are after for another big name to add to their squad.

Irish Return:

London Irish have reportedly been chasing former player and England international Joe Cokanasiga.

The 25 year-old winger is currently playing at Bath but with some exports expected in the Irish squad, he services are required once again back at his old club.
