New items have been added to an online auction in support of the family of former Leicester Tigers centre Seru Rabeni.
Rabeni, who was an immensely popular figure in 63 appearances for Tigers from 2004, died in Fiji at the age of just 37 earlier this year.
He played a major role in the club’s league and cup double win of 2006/07. He was also a Premiership title winner with Leicester in 2008/09.
Known for his immense power on the pitch and a beaming smile off it, Rabeni also won 30 caps for Fiji and nine for the combined Pacific Islanders. After leaving Leicester, he had spells with Leeds, La Rochelle and Mont-de-Marsan before beginning a coaching career which included spells in the USA and Hong Kong.
The auction was launched last week on eBay and some of the first items close on Friday morning, including a Martin Johnson signed England shirt, an England shirt signed by Dan Cole, Manu Tuilagi and Ben Youngs, and a home Tigers shirt signed by the 2015/16 squad.
New items have also been added for auction, including signed Aaron Mauger and Martin Castrogiovanni photos, a signed ball and a voucher for a tour of the King Power Stadium, the home of Leicester City.
