NZ winger Sivivatu to join Clermont
All Blacks winger Sitiveni Sivivatu is set to join French club Clermont after the World Cup.
Sivivatu will reportedly sign a two-year deal to replace Napolioni Nalaga, whose contract has been terminated.
Clermont player Sione Lauaki said on his Twitter account: "Sivivatu playing here next season, Good for Clermont and 4 him, Hope 2 play with my boy again."
Nalaga didn't return from Fiji following the winter break after his wife was injured in a car crash. He told the club he was unable to give guarantees he will be back in France for next season.
The 28-year-old Sivivatu, a powerful winger renowned for his speed and ability to create space, has scored 135 points in 43 matches with the All Blacks.
