Gloucester have confirmed, after much media speculation, that centre Billy Twelvetrees will be moving to Kingsholm from Leicester for 2012/13.
Twelvetrees, who is currently with the England Saxons squad preparing for their fixture against the Irish Wolfhounds on Saturday will be linking up with his new club-mates when pre-season training commences in June.
Twelvetrees himself confirmed that he is looking forward to the future challenge but confirmed his immediate commitment to the Tigers.
"I'm incredibly grateful to everyone at the Tigers for the role they've played in helping me to get to this point in my career and, of course, all the support from the fans I've had over the last three years," he told the Gloucester website on Saturday.
"It's not been an easy decision to make but I am looking forward to joining Gloucester in the summer and being part of what is shaping up to be an incredibly talented young English back line.
"In the meantime though, I'll be fully committed to helping make the rest of the season as successful as possible for Leicester."
