Duane Vermeulen’s reported move to France appears all the more likely after the Springbok and Stormers No 8 rejected a contract offer from the South African Rugby Union (SARU).
Vermeulen would have been the highest earning Springbok had he accepted SARU’s offer.
His decision to reject the offer from SARU adds fire to reports earlier this year that linked him with a move to French club Toulon.
The 28-year-old’s contract with Western Province expires this year, while his SARU contract expires on 31 December.
Vermeulen has played 29 Tests for the Springboks since making his debut in 2012.
Wow. Big loss for SA rugby. But paves the way for players like Warren Whiteley etc.
The guy must have learned something from the F. Styen’s debacle?
And, Like in Bakkie’s case, there is nothing to stop him from playing for the Boks while with Toulon?
