It looks increasingly unlikely that Leinster will sign a marquee overseas player, as Leo Cullen ruled out replacing Rieko Ioane with another All Black and highlighted the difficulty of recruiting in a World Cup year.
The head coach confirmed that Springbok RG Snyman would be with Leinster next season, but as of yet, they have not announced a replacement for Ioane or departing prop Rabah Slimani.
