Question mark around De Allende's future at Munster
TRANSFER TALK: Munster are reportedly in the market for a new centre.
According to RugbyPass Munster are set to sign former All Blacks centre Malakai Fekitoa from Wasps.
Fekitoa’s exit from Wasps has long been on the table but his exact destination remained unclear.
It now appears that contrary to some reports, the Irish province have won the battle for the 29-year-old.
The Torgan-born star can play at 12 or 13 and could certainly help fill the void created by Damian De Allende’s rumoured departure.

The Springbok’s contract with Munster expires in June.
Although his next move is yet to be confirmed, reports in the UK revealed that the Springbok has been targetted by teams in England, France and Japan.
The Limerick-based side already have Ireland centres Chris Farrell and Rory Scannell on the books.
