As a result the salary cap has risen to £6.5m a year, while each club can also sign two 'marquee players' who do not count under the cap. With the new season starting on Friday, BBC Sport takes a closer look at some of the stellar new arrivals set to make an impact this year. South African flanker Burger is the most experienced of the new international stars arriving on England's shores, with 86 international caps under his belt. The 33-year-old, who won the World Cup with the Springboks in 2007, moves to champions Saracens after spells with Japanese outfit Suntory Sungoliath and Super Rugby side Stormers. Burger made his international debut for South Africa in 2003 and has featured in four World Cups. "I've had a good career so far but you have two ways to look at it," he told BBC Radio 5 live. "One - you can try and slow down, try and limit the schedule and play a little bit less. I look at it the other way. "I've got a couple of years maybe more left and I just want to challenge myself as much as possible." The Australia full-back, capped 60 times by his country, is one of the highest-profile signings in Premiership history. Beale, 27, is one of Wasps' marquee players with his salary - in excess of £500,000 a year - falling outside the salary cap. But Wasps fans will not see the former Waratahs star in action until at least November as he recovers from a serious knee injury. "It's pretty frustrating coming in injured - not being able to do the things I am meant to do - but I guess when the opportunity comes I will be fighting fit and ready to go," Beale told BBC Radio 5 live. "Obviously there is going to be a little bit of expectation and pressure. But I don't think it will be a huge problem for me because I really enjoy it when the pressure is on." France number eight Picamoles has made what has been an unusual move over the past few years, from France to England, while at his playing peak. The 30-year-old, who has 54 international caps and is noted as one of the finest ball carriers in the game, said he was looking forward to the quicker pace of the Premiership. "Maybe it is more physical in France, but here all teams want to play a fast game, and this is good for my progression," he told BBC Radio 5 live. "It's a big change for me and my family but we are enjoying starting a new life and adventure." The Wales international - foreign in that he is not English-qualified - may not have moved far in heading to the West Country from Newport, but Faletau's arrival at Bath was not without
summary: A host of big international names are ready to light up what promises to be another ferocious Premiership season.
