Former Flying Fijian Michael Tagicakibau has been sidelined for up to three weeks and will miss the rest of the Heineken Cup challenge.

Tagicakibau was ruled out for three weeks with a hamstring tear.

Apart from Tagicakibau, three of his Saracens teammates were ruled out of action after their Heineken Cup match against Leicester over the weekend.

Meanwhile, Exeter Chiefs are close to completing the signing of Fiji international Nemani Nadolo from Top 14 strugglers Bourgoin.

The 23 year old winger has been monitored by the Chiefs since scoring against them in the Amlin Challenge Cup in October.

Nadolo was part of the crowd as Exeter beat Bourgoin 17 6 in the return fixture on Saturday, with injury ruling him out of the game.
