Grégory Alldritt signs a new long-term deal with La Rochelle
- 1996
Fresh off the back of their Champions Cup triumph, La Rochelle have secured another win with club captain Grégory Alldritt extending his deal with the Club until 2026.
Alldritt has played 82 times for the Club since his arrival in 2017 and has earned 29 test caps in doing so.
Born in Condom-en-Armagnac in the South West of France, Alldritt didn't feature for France at youth level but represented Auch 14 times scoring two tries before he signed for La Rochelle.
He broke into the first team and made 10 appearances for the club with his ability to play across the back row. 2017/18 season was a breakout season for Alldritt but the 2018/19 season was when he exploded onto the scene as earned a call up to the France 2019 Six Nations squad.
He made his test debut off the bench against Wales at the Stade de France and would come off the bench against England. He scored his first try off the bench against Scotland in his third cap and doubled up as France ran out 27-10 victors. He earned his first start on the flank against Italy a week later in Rome.
Alldritt went on to represent France at the Rugby World Cup making 4 appearances at the showpiece starting 3 times taking his test cap tally to 11, with all three of his tries coming against Scotland.
