There is movement in Perpignan! Sadek Dehgmache should be loaned to Colomiers while forwards coach Perry Freshwater will take charge of Stade Français next season.
Guest of the 100% Usap issue on Here Roussillon, the manager of Perpignan Franck Azéma revealed several pieces of information. Sadek Dehgmache (29) should be loaned to Colomiers until the end of the current financial year. The scrum half would go looking for playing time which he no longer has in the Sang et Or jersey. If he played 20 matches in all competitions last season and 22 the one before, he did not participate only one Top 14 match and one Challenge Cup match this year (both as a substitute). Injured in a knee last March, he found himself barred by James Hall, Tom Ecochard or Gela Aprasidze on his return this season. The player trained in Céret (28 years old) would wear the jersey of another Usap team for the first time among the pros (165 matches). “Sadek needs playing timeexplains the former ASM strongman. I’d be a liar if I said I could play it every weekend […]. Having this opportunity in Colomiers, if it is confirmed, we are still waiting for it to be official, would allow him to express himself, to show the player he is.”
A sought-after second line and center
Another historic will leave Catalonia, but this time permanently. Pillar of Perpignan (2003-2012) Perry Freshwater became the club’s forward coach in 2016, a position he still holds. He is even under contract until 2026. Also in the radio show, Franck Azéma made it official his departure to the French Stadium at the end of the current financial year: “He announced it to the players and staff a few days ago. In a career, there are developments […] He wanted it, it’s another project, I think he wanted to expose himself too […] It’s a regret to let him go but that’s how it is, there is no one irreplaceable. For him, it’s a good opportunity to realize today. We’re not going to hold him back.” After the departure of Karim Ghezal during the seasonthe Parisians made it official this Monday the arrival of Mathieu Blin as scrum consultant. There therefore remained a vacant position to support Julien Tastet.
The manager spoke about the Englishman’s successor. He said he wanted to take the time to find the right profile. Finally, the former RCT coach admitted to being looking for a center and a second line for next season.
