kyle Eastmond one of four players to leave Wasps

Director of rugby Dai Young has taken another step towards finalising his squad for next season by confirming the departure of four players when their contracts expire at the end of the current season.

Paul Doran Jones

Former Northampton and London Welsh prop Doran Jones joined Wasps from Gloucester last summer and has since appeared four times in black-and-gold.

Kyle Eastmond

The dual-code international centre left Bath for the Ricoh Arena during 2016. Subsequently he has played 23 times for Wasps, scoring four tries.

Brendan Macken

The Blackrock College product arrived at Wasps from Leinster in 2015. During his three-year stint in Coventry Macken has scored nine tries in 30 appearances.

Matt Symons

The 28-year-old former Waikato Chiefs second row joined Wasps from London Irish two years ago and has since been seen 31 times in black-and-gold.

Dai Young said:

“On behalf of everyone at Wasps I would like to thank Paul, Kyle, Brendan and Matt for their contributions.

“Professional rugby is a tough world within which players and coaches do move clubs, but it still can be a sad time when faces change.

“I hope the players have enjoyed their time with us and wish them well in their future careers.”

Wasps confirmed that they will provide further updates on their 2018/19 squad during the course of May.
