Moore, who is an Ireland international, has earned 10 caps for Ireland since making his senior debut in their 2014's 28-6 victory over Scotland.
Soon after he was selected for the 2016 Irish Six Nations squad, the 25-year-old announced he will be joining Wasps for the upcoming season.
Tommy Taylor (signed 1 February 2016 from Sale Sharks)
After Sale Sharks were hoping to extend Taylor's stay at the AJ Bell Stadium, the hooker slipped through their fingers and went on to sign a deal with their Premiership rivals, Wasps.
The 24-year-old was named in England's squad in May 2016 and made his full debut against Wales later the same month.
Danny Cipriani (signed 16 February 2016 from Sale Sharks)
Cipriani played 95 times for Wasps before leaving for the Rebels in 2011, with this year's signing marking his return for Wasps.
