a Springbok about to join Aviron Bayonnais?

Aviron Bayonnais continues, as in previous seasons, to be very ambitious on the transfer market. And this time, it is a world champion that the Basque club would have in its sights… According to the latest information from Midi Olympique, Bayonne would be very interested in the profile of the Stormers player, Herschel Jantijies.

First contacts established with the Springbok

The club is studying options in the event of the departure of Guillaume Rouet and/or Maxime Machenaud, who are reaching the end of their contract this summer, and the South African seems to have the preferences of the managers. A first contact by videoconference has already taken place between the two parties. If Herschel Jantijies did not play the 2023 World Cup with South Africa, he was crowned during the 2019 World Cup. He has not worn the Springboks jersey since the preparation matches for the last World Cup, in August 2023.
