- 488
Leicester Tigers chief executive Simon Cohen has said the club are close to sealing deals for London Welsh back-rower Lachlan McCaffrey and Waratahs winger Peter Betham.
Betham, 26, has won two caps for Australia, while McCaffrey, 25, is an ex-Wallabies Under-20 international.
Cohen said Tigers were "not a million miles" from completing the deals.
He also admitted there was a "real possibility" flanker Robert Barbieri will leave at the end of the season.
Italian international Barbieri signed from Treviso in May 2014, and has made 19 appearances this season.
