Agulla can also play at centre

Brive winger Horacio Agulla has joined Leicester Tigers on a two-year deal.

The 25-year-old Argentina international will be a replacement for full-back/winger Johne Murphy, who leaves the club at the end of the season.

Head coach Richard Cockerill told BBC Radio Leicester: "He has good footwork, good pace and he can improve. He's going to be better in our environment."

Cockerill said more signings may be on the cards. "We're looking at one or two but we've just got to get the balance."

"We're trying to keep the young guys that are coming through. However, it's about balancing the squad within the constraints that we have," he said.
