the second-row has resumed collective training with Pau!

Hugo Auradou is waiting. About ten days ago, the second-row and Oscar Jegou were authorized by the Argentinian justice system to return to France. Charged with aggravated rape of a 39-year-old woman, the two players have always denied the facts and have made a request for dismissal that the investigating judge must study in the coming days. In the meantime and due to inconsistencies in the complainant’s story, they were authorized to leave Argentinian territory and have resumed their daily lives as rugby players. Thus, as reported by AFPHugo Auradou participated in the collective training of the Section Paloise, open to the public.

The Paloise Section welcomes a “welcomed and positive return”

Until now, he had been training separately to get back into shape. In comments reported by The TeamAntoine Nicoud welcomed this return: “He was integrated as agreed in his recovery plan. He did a week of athletic recovery, testing. And a second week where he partly reintegrated into collective training. He fit back into the mold very naturally, very comfortable in rugby. For the moment, Hugo’s return is appreciated and positive.”. Now, Section Paloise is waiting for the conclusions of the Argentinian justice system to allow its player to play again: “We don’t really know. We hope for a positive outcome very quickly, but for the moment, there is not much in the way of a middle ground.”.
