Jantjies in Bayonne, it's done. According to our information, the South African scrum-half recently gave his agreement to Aviron Bayonnais, with whom initial contacts took place a few weeks ago, as indicated in our edition last Friday. In recent days, Aviron Bayonnais had accelerated on the track leading to the South African to finalize this file.
25 selections
Thus, Herschel Jantjies will sign a pre-contract with the Basque club, which he will join next summer for two seasons plus one optional. Until now, the 28-year-old had been playing for the Stormers since 2019. International with the Springboks 25 times, the number nine (1.67 m, 77 kg) will discover the French championship next season, barring a turnaround.
Fourth in the ranking, the club coached by Grégory Patat has achieved a very good success on the transfer market. As a reminder, the CV of the “sud-af” had also circulated around the Stade français and the MHR.
At the post, next year, Bayonne will therefore be able to count on the experience of Jantjies and the youth of Germain. Who will be the third nine in the hierarchy? In the coming days, the Ciel et Blanc club will have to decide on the future of Maxime Machenaud and Guillaume Rouet, whose contracts end in June.
