WASPS and England Under 20s wing Tom Howe is understood to be joining Worcester Warriors this summer.
The 21-year-old has been a regular at England age-group levels and is believed to have signed a deal at Warriors.
Milton Keynes-born Howe impressed against Warriors in Wasps’ emphatic 62-10 Anglo-Welsh Cup triumph at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry in November.
A Wasps academy member, Howe was in great form against Warriors, making three clean breaks, beating two defenders and gaining 98 metres from just eight carries.
He is a former student at Shiplake College in Henley and cut his teeth at Beaconsfield RFC where Warriors chief executive Jim O’Toole has a strong association.
Howe, who has played twice for Wasps’ first team, has enjoyed loan spells at Championship Jersey and Henley Hawks in National League One.
Howe has previously been part of England Sevens development team and also played for England Under 16s and 17s.
