Loose forward Ardie Savea has reportedly caught the eye of two Super Rugby teams for his services ahead of his return to New Zealand rugby.
The All Blacks star is set to re-enter the local scene following the end of his sabbatical with Kobelco Kobe Steelers.
According to widespread reports, the Hurricanes are eager to lure Savea back to Wellington, where the 31-year-old made more than 120 appearances.

However, the Blues are also tipped to be keen on snapping up the 101-Test Kiwi.
Savea captained and starred for Moana Pasifika last season, but needs to return home in order to be eligible for national selection for the World Cup next year.
Moana are expected to cease operations at the end of the current campaign, prompting interest from rival New Zealand clubs.
