The USAP is strengthening, even though its future remains uncertain. The Catalans are experiencing a frustrating end to the season where, despite an undeniable return to form, they are condemned to compete in a play-off to remain in the Top 14. While waiting to know who from Provence or Vannes will stand against them, the leaders are working behind the scenes to strengthen their group.
After the already announced signings of Swinton, McGrath, Reece and Forletta, Perpignan would now be on the verge of concluding the arrival of a fly-half. According to information from The Team, Ross Byrne is getting closer to Catalonia. If Garbisi was the priority target, the Italian would want to stay in Toulon. Consequently, USAP activated the track leading to the Irish international, lacking playing time at Gloucester. The final details should quickly be resolved before making his arrival official.
To summarize
According to information from L’Equipe, USAP is close to obtaining the signing of an international fly-half from Gloucester. The Irishman could thus come and strengthen the Catalan club in the weeks to come.
