The Stade Toulousain infirmary has been considerably full in recent weeks. No less than five players have been operated on recently. Among them is Selevasio Tolofua, who underwent hip surgery. The third line has finished his season and will no longer wear the Toulouse jersey, he who will join Toulon during the next off-season.
The third line of Stade Toulouse is going through complicated times. In recent days, she has seen Anthony Jelonch and Selevasio Tolofua undergoing surgery. The latter is “passed on the billiards” to try to eliminate recurring pain in a hip.
Even if no formalization has been made by the Haut-Garonne club, Tolofua will no longer put on the crampons this season according to La Dépêche du Midi. This long absence means that the French international will no longer wear the Toulouse tunic since he will leave the Pink City at the end of this 2022/2023 financial year.
The 25-year-old will join Rugby Club Toulonnais in an attempt to revive a career that has stalled in recent months. He is committed until 2026 with the RCT and will find there Christopher, his brother.
124 matches with Toulouse
It was during the 2016/2017 season that Selevasio Tolofua tasted for the very first time at the top level with Stade Toulousain. In just two seasons, he has established himself as an important part of the squad led by Ugo Mola.
With Toulouse, the player with the 2 selections with the XV of France raised twice the Bouclier de Brennus (2019,2021) and once the Champions Cup (2021); Even if he should not participate in the party on the ground, he could therefore win a third French championship at the end of this season, enough to leave on a magnificent note.
In total, Selevasio Tolofua played 124 games with the Rouge et Noir. A nice total that could have stopped dead against Montpellier on January 29, the date of the last match of the third row with his training club.
