Anthony Watson

Bath have signed Anthony Watson and David Sisi from Premiership rivals London Irish.

The England Under-20 duo will join the Rec outfit for the start of next season's campaign.

Back-rower Sisi, 20, made his first-team debut for the Exiles against Sale in the LV= Cup in November 2010, and has since made 12 appearances.

Full-back Watson, 19, has started 16 games for Irish this season, scoring four tries.

Bath head coach Gary Gold said: "Anthony and David are outstanding players with real potential for the long-term.

"We feel that by bringing them into this environment we will really see them develop and bring out the best in them.

"Young, English talent is a big part of our thinking, and we see these young men as investments for the future. We are delighted to have secured them both."
