Transfers / Top 14 – Bok Herschel Jantjies courted, Puma Gonzalo Garcia pleases Union -Bègles

Two southern internationals could land in the Top 14 next summer while a number of big teams are prospecting, including , and -Bègles.

While the 9s market is mainly driven by non-Jiffs this fall, we are about to witness the arrival of several southern internationals in .

Herschel Jantjies (28 years old, 25 caps) is particularly sought after on the market. The Stormers player was recently approached by – who has activated other avenues in parallel since – and is attracting interest from other elite teams. According to our information, the leaders of Bayonne in turn looked at the profile of Herschel Jantjies (1.67 m, 77 kg). There is interest and a videoconference took place between the two parties a few days ago. As for Jean-Dauger, Guillaume Rouet (36 years old) and Maxime Machenaud (35 years old, 38 caps) are reaching the end of their contract. On this subject, the first mentioned, who has had several physical problems, has only played two matches this season, while the second, who has played a series of matches (9 matches played, 5 starts), would like to continue the adventure in the sky and white.

Garcia replacing in Ireland

If Herschel Jantjies could land in the Basque Country, the South African international scrum-half has also been offered to Stade français Paris, which is looking for reinforcements at the position. In addition to Bayonne and Paris, Bordeaux-Bègles is active on the scrum half market. As a reminder, Yann Lesgourgues (34 years old) should take charge of , where a two-year contract awaits him, while Paul Abadie (30 years old) is only hired until June.

According to our information, recruiters are in contact with Argentinian international scrum-half Gonzalo Garcia (25 years old, 11 caps, 1.73 m, 78 kg). The profile of the Parma Zebra player appeals internally and his contractual situation – he is linked until 2026 to the Italian franchise – would not be an obstacle to his arrival. The Puma, which has been playing on the other side of the Alps since 2022, was a substitute against Italy last Saturday and will be again this Friday in Ireland.

Other CVs of non-Jiff players were received by the UBB, including that of Springbok Jaden Hendrikse (24 years old, 19 caps). The 9 market is far from having revealed all its secrets.
