The Springbok star, whose contract at the Pretoria franchise expires at the end of October, is reportedly being pursued by several overseas clubs as well as the Bulls' provincial rivals from Cape Town.

"We are flying to Cape Town and Bryan will meet with Rassie (Erasmus) and I will meet with WP managing director Rob Wagne," Bernie Habana told the Supersport website.

"We have never offered Bryan's services to anyone. Rassie phoned me a while back asking me about Bryan, and this is how the meeting came about.

"We have not received an offer from WP. Bryan didn't even know about WP's interests and when I told him we were going to Cape Town he asked 'What for?'."

Last week another Western Province target in Bulls centre Wynand Olivier reportedly turned down a lucrative amount of money in favour of staying in Pretoria.
