INFO RMC Sport – Australian second row Rory Arnold, at the end of his contract, is due to leave Stade Toulousain next summer to join Japan.
The Arnold brothers are not expected to play together next season. If Richie has extended his contract until 2025, as the Stade Toulousain formalized on Wednesday, Rory is indeed on the way out. According to information from RMC Sport, the one who was crowned champion of France and Europe last season is about to join Japan at the end of the season. The file is in the process of being finalized.
Arrived in 2019 in the Pink City, the second international row (31 years old, 29 caps) wanted a change of scenery to focus on the 2023 World Cup. Holder against Scotland last November for his return to the selection and then against the England and Wales, the former Brumbies player had not worn the Wallabies jersey since 2019.
Extensions to come for Stade Toulousain
For Toulouse, it will obviously be a significant loss. The leaders are active behind the scenes to keep their best elements, whether for the staff and the players. As revealed by RMC Sport on Wednesday, manager Ugo Mola has extended until 2027, while Antoine Dupont, Julien Marchand, Cyril Baille and François Cros have already piled up over time. Other extensions of important players are expected to follow shortly.
