While we are gradually approaching the end of the season in Top 14, many movements could animate the offseason. Thus, if Sergio Parisse should stay in Toulon, Teddy Thomas could bounce back in Lyon and Pierre-Louis Barassi spin off in Toulouse.
Good news for the RCT. At the end of his contract at the end of the season, Sergio Parisse should extend his contract with Toulon by one year. At 37, the Italian 3rd row would offer himself a final challenge with a 14th season in the Top 14 and could even become a player-coach. Indeed, according to L’Equipe, the Argentine by birth would take over the sideline sector next year and would therefore integrate the staff of Patrice Collazo. Coveted by Lyon, Facundo Isa, the Argentinian 3rd line, should also stay on the Rade, just like Christopher Tolofua. On the other hand, Thomas Hoarau (3rd row) and three-quarters Théo Dachary, Daniel Ikpefan and Ramiro Moyano are getting closer and closer to a start this summer, with tracks in Top 14 and Pro D2 for them.
Thomas’ future linked to Barassi’s?
Touched at the back, Toulouse is currently active to strengthen for the end of the season. Indeed, with Sofiane Guitoune, Lucas Tauzin and Juan Cruz Mallia on the flank, Ugo Mola would like to have an additional player. However, according to Olympic Noon, the lucky winner could be Santiago Chocobares, one of the latest revelations of the last Rugby Championship, if the problem of his visa is quickly resolved. In addition, the Argentinian is coveted by the Stade Français for next season, where he could replace Gaël Fickou. With the retirement of Yoann Huget, Mola would also like to recruit Pierre-Louis Barassi this summer, again according to the bi-weekly specializing in rugby. A departure of the latter could lead to the arrival of Teddy Thomas at LOU, despite his possible desire to stay at Racing 92, where his great friend Fickou has just landed. A real game of musical chairs could therefore take place.
Kremer wants to stay, Coles and Kitshoff extend
In the other information of the day, Marcos Kremer intends to honor his contract with the Stade Français until 2023, despite an interest of Racing 92 for him. “I confirm that I will be Parisian until 2023. I certainly had requests but everything is going very well for me here, even if sporting it is a bit difficult, I am really very happy to have resigned. I feel good at the club ”, explained the Argentinean in an interview with Rugbyrama. Finally, internationally, Dane Coles, hooker from New Zealand, extended until the 2023 World Cup with his Federation, while Steven Kitshoff, the left pillar of the Springboks coveted in France by Montpellier, remains in South Africa, where it extended until 2024 with the Western Province.
