Leicester Tigers forward Lewis Moody says he is totally committed to helping the club regain their Premiership title despite his impending exit.

Moody will be quitting Welford Road to join Bath at the end of the season.

But the 31-year-old England flanker returns to club duty against Worcester Warriors this weekend adamant he will not be distracted.

"My job and focus is here and winning this trophy. Nothing else enters my mind," Moody told BBC Radio Leicester.

"We've got five league games left and then obviously two more if everything goes well. It's a huge run-in and it starts this weekend against Worcester."

Moody said he will only have good memories of his time as a Tiger but feels he is right to move on.

"I've had a fantastic 14 years at Leicester, have loved every minute of it and have made some incredible friends," he added.

"And we've won some trophies along the way - I can't even remember how many it's been that good.

"To play with that many great teams and that many great players has been a huge honour but there comes a time when you have to make a decision and I felt it was the right decision."
