Here we take a look at six transfers which will almost certainly be announced before the end of the season.

1. Cobus Reinach to Montpellier

According to French publication Midi Olympique, the 29-year-old could make the move from Northampton Saints for the 2020/21 European season. The report adds that Reinach could be earning around £500,000 per season at his new club should the deal go through. The pay increase combined with better climate in the south of France make this a probable move.

2. Ross Moriarty to Exeter Chiefs

According to The Rugby Paper, Exeter Chiefs have identified a Wales powerhouse Ross Moriarty as their top target as they look to secure the marquee signing for the 2020/21 Premiership season. With the WRU set to review their current 60- cap rules, we could definitely see this move happening!

3. Greig Laidlaw to Edinburgh

A story featured in Midi Olympique, the leading sports newspaper in France, suggests the future of the Scotland playmaker has already been established, with the decision being he will not be at Clermont next season. It’s thought he favours a return to Edinburgh where he began his career, making 137 appearances and scoring 598 points in a seven-year stint in the Scottish capital between 2007 and 2014.

4. Kyle Sincker to Bristol Bears

Harlequins’s premier tighthead prop Kyle Sinckler is reportedly being chased by three other Gallagher Premiership clubs when his contract expires at the end of the 2019/20 season. According to RUCK sources, Bristol Bears lead the chase and will land the England powerhouse, beating Bath and Sale to the signing.

5. Liam Williams to Toulon

He's unlikely to sign another deal with Saracens, who will likely have to slash their budget. Widespread reports suggest Toulon will make him a huge offer, which any of the interested Welsh regions would struggle to compete with.
