Talent always attracts desire. That of Sam Davies is no exception to the rule. The 31-year-old Welsh fly-half, who arrived in Isère in the 2023 off-season and who will reach the end of his contract in June 2025, is necessarily an attractive player on the transfer market.
The one who scored 335 points and delivered 15 assists in a season and a half of Pro D2 with FC Grenoble could leave Isère. In any case, according to our colleagues at Rugbyrama.fr, who, on Sunday, reported a possible departure of the Welshman to the Leicester Tigers. The English club is looking for a replacement for Jamie Shillcock, their fly-half in the crosshairs of Brive.

According to our information, the club from central England has approached Sam Davies to introduce him to the Premiership next season. But these contacts, started two months ago, would not have been successful. On the contrary.
A three-year offer from the FCG
As we indicated at the end of October in Le Dauphiné Libéré, the FCG sent an extension offer to its opener. And according to our information, Davies is about to accept a new contract with Grenoble covering three seasons.
If this deal materializes, it would be a very good operation for FC Grenoble, once again the sole leader of Pro D2 after its recent victory (34-22) against Brive (2nd); victory which gave credence to its ambition to join the Top 14 in the short term. Which was Sam Davies’ ambition when he arrived in Lesdiguières.
