Premiership side Worcester Warriors are reportedly chasing Cheetahs head coach and former Cheetahs Director of Rugby Rory Duncan.

Former Stormers and Southern Kings coach, Alan Solomons, is Worcester Warriors Director of Rugby is believed that he will be looking to add some more South African flavour to the side.

Solomons replaced the former Springbok assistant, Gary Gold late last year and is looking for a new head coach after Worcester announced that head coach, Carl Hogg, will be departing the club at the end of the current season.

Duncan is reportedly been added to the club's shortlist to replace Hogg.

Reports have suggested that the Cheetahs current Director of Rugby and Springbok assistant coach, Franco Smith, could very well take over as the teams head coach for a second stint but has also been given an ultimatum by Rassie Erasmus to pick between the Cheetahs and Springboks.

This could mean that the Cheetahs will need to appoint two new coaches in top positions in the union for the 2018/19 season.
