Springbok wing Bryan Habana will be flying into Cape Town on Monday to meet Western Province senior professional coach Rassie Erasmus about a possible move to WP.
Habana’s father and agent Bernie told the Cape Times on Sunday night that his son would be meeting Erasmus and he would be seeing WP Rugby managing director Rob Wagner on Monday. Habana’s contract with the Blue Bulls ends on October 31 this year and he has yet to decide where he will play his rugby next year. “We have not received an offer from Western Province,” Bernie Habana said. “We are flying to Cape Town tomorrow morning. Bryan will be meeting Rassie and I will meet Rob Wagner.
“We have never offered Bryan’s services to anyone. Rassie phoned me a while back enquiring about Bryan, and this is how tomorrow’s meeting came about. Bryan didn’t even know about Western Province’s interest until today, when I told him we are going to Cape Town. He in fact asked me ‘What for?’ and I told him. So we will see what happens at the meeting tomorrow.”
Bernie Habana said that Bryan met with the Bulls on Sunday. “We met with the Blue Bulls yesterday and had a deep discussion about Bryan’s situation. We have given our price and it is now up to them to make Bryan an offer,” he said.
“The first prize would be for Bryan to stay in South Africa and that is what everyone wants. But he has to make up his mind on what he wants to do.”
Bernie said that his son enjoys coming to Cape Town. “Bryan loves the Cape. He has lots of friends there and has been there on holiday, but it is different when you have to live in a place,” he said. “He also doesn’t want to rush into any decision. He wants to go through all offers before deciding where he wants to play. “That is a good way of doing things. We have also told Bulls coach Frans Ludeke that we are going to Cape Town, so there are no secrets.”
At the moment, WP only have Tonderai Chavhanga and Sireli Naqelevuki as specialist wings.
