Centres Guy Porter and Matt Scott are among five players Leicester Tigers will release at the end of the season.

Hooker Nic Dolly and props Francois van Wyk and Dan Richardson will also be leaving the Premiership side.

Porter, who has scored 15 tries for Leicester, and Dolly have both earned England caps in recent years.

The departures of World Cup winner Jasper Wiese and Ospreys-bound Phil Cokanasiga had previously been confirmed by the club.

"All these lads have made massive contributions to the club," said general manager Richard Wilks.

"When we look back on the likes of Jasper, Nic and Guy; there's a lot of pride in their development, becoming international players whilst at the club and they'll be missed around Oval Park."
