In search of new blood at the scrum half position due, in particular, to the prolonged absence of Alexis Bernadet, the MHR has, according to our information, set its sights on Martin Doan (26 years old). Already passed through Montpellier, number 9 played until then in Bourgoin, in Nationale.
On paper, the MHR is particularly well armed at the scrum half level with the electric springbok world champion Cobus Reinach, the rising star Léo Coly and the promising Alexis Bernadet. Except that in recent weeks, problems have accumulated at the post: Reinach is injured in the ribs and uncertain for the trip to Toulouse, Coly is treating his hamstring and Bernadet, above all, is probably finished with his season.
The former Montalban player, a nice surprise for Hérault recruitment, injured his shoulder on January 17 in Newcastle, when he had just scored three tries in two matches. Forced to strengthen themselves in the crucial position of scrum half, the leaders of the Cistus club scanned the market to find a joker. Eager to enlist a Jiff medical player, they targeted players looking for playing time or playing in lower divisions.
Ten matches under the clock with the MHR
According to our information, they have – after negotiations to obtain his release – set their sights on a former member of the Hérault house in the person of Martin Doan (26), expected in the coming days at the GGL Stadium. After a promising start at Albi, from 2016 to 2021, Martin Doan was recruited by the MHR in the summer of 2021. Played eight times during the 2021-2022 financial year, he was subsequently loaned to Mont-de- Marsan in 2022-2023 then in Bourgoin from February 2024.
-After having worn the colors of CSBJ fourteen times in the National this season, he will therefore be offered a new opportunity to show himself in the elite and contribute to the quest for qualification in the final stages of the 2022 French champion.
