London Wasps have signed London Irish scrum-half Jack Moates, who will join the club at the end of the season.
Moates, 20, has made 17 appearances this season for London Irish and joins with a growing reputation in the pivotal number nine shirt.
"I have been impressed with Jack as a young scrum half both for the London Irish A side and their senior side over the past year or so and I know he is a very ambitious player," said Wasps boss Dai Young.
"I believe a squad needs a strong mix of scrum halves over the course of the season and he will add to the mix alongside the likes of Joe Simpson and Charlie Davies."
"It's a really exciting time to be joining London Wasps as they are flying high in the league and pushing for Heineken Cup qualification," said Moates.
"There are already some high quality scrum-halves at Wasps but I am looking forward to developing further under the likes of Dai Young and Shane Howarth so that I can challenge for a place in the first team."
