Haskell in demand as Ospreys join the race

Wasps and England back-row James Haskell is being tracked by Ospreys, Sale Sharks and Toulouse as the race for his signature hots up.

The 23-year-old star’s deal is up at the end of the season and Wasps remain confident he will sign a new contact. However, with so much attention from elsewhere, reports suggest Haskell may assess his options towards the end of the campaign.

After a poor start to the 08/09 season, Wasps have started to find some form but with Danny Cipriani, Tom Rees, Riki Flutey, Dominic Waldouck and Dave Walder all yet to sign extensions to their contracts, the 2008 Guinness Premiership champions could be facing a tough year ahead.
