TRANSFERS – According to Planet Rugby, George Ford (31 years old, Sale) is about to sign up with ASM Clermont for next season.

For several weeks, Clermont et Christophe Urios face a construction site at number 10 after the announcement of the departure of Benjamin Urdapilleta (38 years old). The Argentinian will hang up his boots while the future ofAnthony Belleau (28 years old) is still uncertain. Unless the situation turns around, Enzo Hervé (26 years old) should come and strengthen the Jaunards from RC .

George Ford a stone's throw from Clermont

In addition to the opener RCTl’ASM Clermont has been looking for an international opener for several weeks. The New Zealander Harry Plummer (26 years old) held the rope for a long time, but the track had cooled down a little, although not completely buried. But according to our English colleagues, the Auvergne club should finally achieve its goals to George Ford.

The 31-year-old English opener had nevertheless refused a first offer of Clermonta few weeks ago. Christophe Urios and the Clermont leaders have returned to the charge and are on the verge of finalizing the recruitment of the English star. Always called with XV of the Rose, George Ford will have to draw a line under his national selection if his signature is confirmed. For Clermontit's a risk taking since the Sale fly-half will probably be the highest paid player at the club.
