He arrived in Hérault in 2016. Nine years later, South African international second-row (or third) Nicolaas Janse van Rensburg will leave the MHR to return to the country at the end of the season. The 30-year-old player, appreciated by Joan Caudullo’s staff who would have liked to keep him, will leave a year before the end of his contract. Van Rensburg wants to return home, in particular to give himself every chance of wearing the Boks jersey 4 years after his only and last selection, against Argentina in August 2021. He was recalled, without playing, last summer for the Rugby Championship.
Van Rensburg has already found his home base: the Bulls, where he launched his career. Number 4 or 6 gave his agreement to the leaders of the Pretoria team. Since 2016, he has played 170 matches with MHR, including 7 this season.
