 Magne is set to leave Montferrand |
Saracens have ruled out signing France flanker Olivier Magne. The club held discussions with the Montferrand player but have opted not to pursue negotiations.
"We had preliminary talks with Olivier at the end of last year but we're not in the market for him," said Sarries coach Rod Kafer.
Saracens have already recruited another flanker, Alex Sanderson from Sale, among seven new signings so far for next season.
Saracens, meanwhile, have secured the signing of scrum-half Joe Bedford from Zurich Premiership rivals Sale Sharks.
The England U-21 international will join the club from the start of next season.
Coach Rod Kafer said: "Joe is a very talented player and will be an excellent addition to the squad.
"As we build for the future, we need to ensure we have a good mix of experienced and young players within the team."
