England and Leicester prop Julian White could miss the Guinness Premiership final after being cited for alleged foul play.
The Leicester forward faces a Rugby Football Union disciplinary hearing in Bristol on May 27 - four days before Tigers' Twickenham showdown with Wasps.
White has been reported by the independent citing officer and charged with an alleged stamping offence during Leicester's dramatic play-off victory over Gloucester at Kingsholm last weekend.
A three-man RFU panel will be chaired by Christopher Quinlan, assisted by Mike Curling and John Doubleday.
White played the full 80 minutes of the win over Gloucester - fly-half Andy Goode ensured the Tigers reached their fourth consecutive play-off final as his injury-time drop-goal handed Leicester a 26-25 win.
