All Black star Jonah Lomu is interested in a move to English rugby, according to his agent.

The giant New Zealand winger, who has scored more World Cup tries than anyone else, has a contract with his country's RFU which expires on November 30.

And his agent, Phil Kingsley-Jones, has revealed that the 26-year-old may be targeting a switch to a top English club.

Kingsley-Jones said: "We will be talking to the NZ RFU about the possibility of renewing the contract.

"But Jonah is well aware of the vast interest expressed from Britain, France, and even American football. We are certainly going to take a serious look at everything.

"In particular, Jonah is keen to play his rugby in England."
