Leinster have added some depth to their front row for next season, by signing Samoan international prop Michael Alaalatoa.

The 29 year old will join next season from the Super Rugby champions Crusaders.

The tighthead is closing in on 100 Super Rugby appearances for the New Zealand franchise, winning three titles with them since joining in 2016.

It's understood Scotland rugby boss Gregor Townsend will be appointed the attack coach.

Ireland's Andy Farrell will reportedly not be part of the group, having withdrawn himself from consideration.
