The Rugby Club Toulonnais is in full swing at the start of the season with several hot issues to decide. The transfer market is in full swing all year round. And the Var club must resolve the situation of several elements reaching the end of the contract. Among them, Paia’aua, Tuicuvu and Smaili, whose extensions are slow to be recorded.
As for Esteban Abadie and Dany Priso, the trend is much more optimistic. Both essential in the squad, they received offers extension of three years according to information from Midi Olympique.
RUGBY. Courted by several Top 14 clubs, Esteban Abadie has made his choiceAlthough nothing has yet been signed, discussions are progressing very favorably. The Toulon leaders would also have gotten ahead of the competition, particularly against Racing 92 and Stade Français.
A relief for Mayol, who will however have to deal with a major departure: that of Leicester Fainga’anuku. The New Zealander returns to the country to answer the call of the All Blacks. A loss for the Rouge et Noir, who will now have to find a new strong winger.
At the same time, the RCT is keeping a close eye on the Enzo Hervé file. The opener, whose contract ends in 2025, has an option year. However, the player arouses envy, particularly on the Clermont side.
RUGBY. In sight with Toulon, will Enzo Hervé join another Top 14 star?On the recruitment side, the priority for Toulon remains to strengthen itself while respecting the JIFF quotas. Names are already circulating, but leaders prefer to remain discreet for the moment. An arrival is still “declared”, according to Midol.
Suffice to say that the next few weeks will be decisive for Bernard Lemaître and the staff. The supporters hope to see the group strengthen and remain competitive in the Top 14 in order to go land a new Brennus in the near future.
