White on Leicester shortlist

Former World Cup-winning South Africa coach Jake White is the most high-profile name on a list of contenders to take over at Leicester after the departure of head coach Marcelo Loffreda.

Former Argentina coach Loffreda has left Welford Road just six months into what was thought to be a two-and-a-half-year contract after taking the Tigers to two finals – the Guinness Premiership and EDF Energy Cup – but losing both.
