Wanted man.
Ulster are lining up a move to bring former Leinster tighthead prop Marty Moore back to Ireland next season, according to a report in The Rugby Paper this morning.
26 year-old Moore moved to Wasps just over 18 months ago, after four-years with Leinster. His move came as a huge shock at the time, with Moore very much beginning to become an integral part of the Irish set-up.
He has previously stated that he still has ambitions to play for Ireland, and while the likes of Tadhg Furlong and John Ryan have stepped up in his absence, tighthead props are still a high commodity.
The report suggests that Ulster have sounded Moore out about his plans beyond this season. Moore has failed to nail down a regular starting berth with Wasps, and this could be the perfect opportunity for him.
