Anyone know where he's going after Warriors?

Dunno but at 32 having only managed 33 games since joining Wuss in 2016 I doubt many will be interested in offering him a similar deal to the one he has currently.

Agreed, but I wonder why the mystery, why he isn't mentioned in any of the transfer lists.

I heard whispers a couple of months back of Bristol being interested, but not heard anything since.

Tusi Pisi is out of contract at the end of this season. Siale Piutau is a good player but not getting any younger, won't be on big bucks. Hurrell is very solid but won't be costing them too much, likewise Piers O'Connor has been a mainstay but won't be breaking the bank.

They must be up to the cap already having paid big money to get several players in. If they trimmed away some of the squad players then there might be room for Te'o.

Because he hasn't agreed a deal to join anyone else yet? Worcester have announced he's off so I presume if he's going elsewhere and it's agreed he'll be presented in those club colours shortly.
