Wasps have signed fly-half Jimmy Gopperth from Leinster ahead of the 2015-16 season.

The New Zealander, 31, joined Leinster in 2013 following four years at Newcastle Falcons.

Gopperth is seen as a replacement for veteran Andy Goode, who is out of contract at the end of the campaign.

"We are delighted to have signed Jimmy Gopperth for next season," director of rugby Dai Young told the club's official website. "Jimmy's consistency of performance at the highest level is really impressive.

"He is one of the most accurate kickers in Northern Hemisphere rugby, and we also expect him to develop a dangerous attacking partnership in our back-line over the next couple of seasons."

Wasps are back in league action on Saturday when they make the trip to Bath.
