Matt Carraro has confirmed that he intends to leave Bath Rugby at the end of the current season.
The 27-year-old, who joined Bath in 2009, has made 60 appearances during his stint at the Recreation Ground.
However, the Australian believes that the time is now right for him to experience a new challenge.
"This was a very hard decision to make but the time has come for me to try a new challenge," Carraro told the club's official website. "I've hugely enjoyed the last three years here at Bath, have worked with some fantastic people and played in front of some great supporters, all of which I will miss.
"I'd like to thank everyone who has helped and supported me through the years here, and will very much be looking to go out on a high at the end of the season, and will be doing all I can to make sure that happens for the club."
The winger signed for Bath from Waratahs.
