Yoram Moefana will stay at UBB until 2028. An extension which delights Bordeaux supporters, but which could never have seen the light of day. Indeed, the three-quarter center of the XV of France admitted to having thought long and hard about the interest of Stade Toulousain. He would even have doubted according to those around him.
In search of a successor for Pita Ahki, at the end of his contract in 2026, Toulouse did not hesitate to approach the player trained in Colomiers. “It was a big thought“, Moefana told South West.
If he seems to have found stability in Bordeauxthe call from the European champion club did not leave him indifferent.
Supported by his family and in particular his uncle, Sipili Falatea, also a UBB player, Moefana took his time. “I thought with my uncles“, he confides, testifying to the importance of family ties in his decision.
Finally, the UBB was able to convince its jewel. Moefana is now focused on the current season: “I don’t care anymore, I’m here.“Words that reassure and confirm his desire to contribute to a Bordeaux project with full ambition.
If the Toulouse desire was real, Moefana preferred the UBB. A strong choice, which sends a clear message: Bordeaux wants to play in the big leagues and does not intend to let its executives leave. Especially among competition that already has some of the best players in the world.
For Moefana, the field is finally regaining its rights, with a deadline in sight: bringing back a title to the UBB. This Sunday, the Bordelais will pass a first big test of this season with a solid trip to Toulouse.
