London Wasps have signed winger James Bailey from France PROD2 side Lyon.

Bailey returns to English rugby after a three-year break, having previously had spells with Bristol, Gloucester and London Irish before his move across the channel.

"I thoroughly enjoyed my time in France but I always knew that I wanted to return to the English game at some point so I jumped at the opportunity to join such a prestigious club as London Wasps," said the 28-year-old.

"Hopefully I can play an important role in the squad and help the club achieve their goals."

Wasps boss Dai Young is hopeful that the signing of Bailey will increase the depth of his side's back three.

"We've got a lot of talent in our back-three but we have been looking to add depth to our squad out wide for some time and James arrives with solid experience at this level," said Young.

While Bailey has never made an appearance for the full England side, he has turned out for the England Sevens several times.
