Swire Shipping Fijian Drua utility back Ponipate Loganimasi is said to be in talks with English Premiership side Sale Sharks.
Loganimasi who scored six tries in 12 games for Fijian Drua last season, was tagged as one of the players to watch and lived up to the hype.
FIJI Water Flying Fijians coach Mick Byrne started Loganimasi at fullback in the Asahi Super Dry Pacific Nations Cup semi-final win over Canada and their 33-27 final success against Japan at America First Field in Utah.
He made an impressive international debut in September 2024, scoring two tries in the Pacific Nations Cup final against Japan, and has since scored nine tries in 19 games for both club and country.
Sharks boss Alex Sanderson hasn’t been shy about his recruitment ambitions for the club next season and has already announced that former England centre Joe Marchant is joining from Stade Français and Welsh loosehead Nicky Smith is joining from Leicester Tigers.
Sanderson, who is looking to build a squad that will regularly challenge for trophies, has also been in discussions with the Saracens duo Alex Lozovski and Elliot Daly about making a move to Manchester.
