SA's forgotten flyhalf linked to Stormers

According to the South African newspaper the Rapport, the 21-year-old is in talks with the Cape Town franchise.

Bosch, who can play flyhalf and fullback, has struggled to cement a spot in the Sharks starting XV.
The youngster last started at flyhalf for the Sharks against the Lions during the pre-season double-header in Cape Town.
Once touted as a future star flyhalf for South Africa a few years ago, the Springbok’s injuries have played a major part in his absence from the starting XV.
Another contributing factor to his lack of game time is head coach Robert Du Preez’s decision to utilize his son Robert du Preez Jnr as the team’s No.1 flyhalf option.
If the move to Cape Town is successful, Bosch still face a tough task of competing against the likes of Damian Willemse, Jean-Luc Du Plessis and Joshua Stander for the pivot role.
The newspaper also reported that wing Leolin Zas is also considering a possible move back to his old franchise.
23-year-old Zas joined the Sharks from the Stormers in 2018 but has also rarely made the Sharks starting XV.
