He will be joined in Bordeaux by Blues utility back Lachie Munro, Lithuanian lock Karolis Navickas and Fijian Sevens star Avenisi Vasuinubu who have all committed to the team which will will be managed by former France captain Raphael Ibanez.
Apart from these signings the club, which assured their place in the Top 14 championship for next season by beating Brive 23-9 on Saturday, have also managed to hold on to 14 of their current players including Argentine winger Rafael Carballo
