Report: Rhys Priestland to join Bath after World Cup

Wales international fly-half Rhys Preistland will complete a move from Scarlets to Bath Rugby after the 2015 World Cup, according to a report.

Bath are reportedly close to announcing the signing of Wales fly-half Rhys Priestland on a two-year deal.

The Scarlets star is thought to have agreed terms with the Aviva Premiership outfit, with a move expected to go through after this year's World Cup.

No deal has yet been confirmed, although The Guardian claim that the 27-year-old will become Bath's second major signing for next term alongside Fiji scrum-half Niko Matawalu.

Priestland, who currently finds himself behind Dan Biggar in the Wales pecking order, has been a part of the Scarlets setup since 2005 when he graduated to the first team via their academy system.
