Samoa international prop Nephi Leatigaga arrived at Leicester Tigers during the summer of 2019.
Capable of playing on either side of the front row, Leatigaga weighs in at 23 stones and first moved into European rugby with Piacenza in Italy before switching to French club Biarritz.
He made his first Test appearance for Samoa in 2016 and had five senior caps to his name before moving to Premiership rugby, making a big impression in 29 appearances in his debut season and claiming his first try in the European win over Calvisano in Italy.
