Habana to extend Toulon stay?

Habana said he hoped for a contract renewal with the three-time European champions but nothing had been confirmed.

"I am in talks with [club president] Mourad Boudjellal and the club and it is not decided yet but I hope it will be done between now and the end of January, beginning of February," he said.

"I have loved the last three and a half years. I love the club, the town is very beautiful and I have made a lot of friends. We have won a lot of titles as well,"

The 33-year-old Habana has helped the club to two European titles and the Top 14 championship since he joined Toulon in 2013.
