The leaders of Aviron Bayonnais are working on the extension of third row Esteban Capilla, author of a try last night against Paris and, more generally, of an interesting start to the season.
Esteban Capilla (21 years old) is experiencing his first real season with the professional Aviron Bayonnais group, the flanker being, until then, more focused on rugby 7s, and his first matches in Top 14 were, to say the least, interesting. Comfortable in the air, quick with the ball in hand and efficient in defense, the former U20 international has had a good start to the championship. He was, moreover, holder Sunday evening against Stade françaisfor the fourth time since the resumption. Author of an interesting match, he spent 53 minutes on Jean Dauger's pitch and scored the first try of his career in the Top 14.
Discussions are progressing
While his contract ends in June, the question of his future is one of the hot topics of the moment, on Jean Dauger's side. Several Top 14 teams have naturally come forward for information in recent weeks. The Basque club, wishing to keep a player it has trained, has, for its part, started discussions with the third row for a possible extension. To date, nothing has been signed yet, but discussions are moving in the right direction. Will the coming weeks allow this file to be completed?
