Leicester Tigers flanker Tom Croft has insisted that he is focused on his side's Aviva Premiership final on Saturday and not the upcoming British and Irish Lions tour.
The 27-year-old was one of six Tigers players chosen by Lions head coach Warren Gatland for the tour of Australia this summer and will jet out to Hong Kong next week.
However, Croft insists that he is concentrating on beating East Midlands rivals Northampton Saints at Twickenham this weekend before he thinks about the Lions.
"We met up [with the Lions] a week ago on Monday said hello, had a few meetings, tried on a bit of kit and things like that then it was straight back to Leicester training," Croft told Sky Sports News.
"This is an exciting time for the club and it is what the boys play for throughout the year.
"It is not about 'oh I wish I was with the Lions now' it is about finishing off the job here, hopefully picking up the trophy and then you can flick the switch on Sunday and meet up with the Lions and fly off to Australia."
Leicester face Northampton in the Aviva Premiership final this Saturday at Twickenham.
