Virimi Vakatawa's next move?

One of the most prominent backline players of the modern era, French international Virimi Vakatawa, is reportedly the next target of Gloucester’s.


The 28 year old centre/winger’s contract with current team Racing 92 is set to expire at the conclusion of the 2020-21 season and it appears that George Skivington has his eye on him as Gloucester’s marquee player unrestricted by the salary cap.

Vakatawa’s prodigious ability and experience would significantly bolster the potency of the Cherry & Whites’ backline, especially when combined with the talents of youngsters Ollie Thorley and Louis Rees-Zammit, for example.

If things are to progress in this channel, Gloucester’s gain will be Racing’s monumental loss, as the latter are apparently struggling to hang onto Teddy Thomas as well.
