Eto Nabuli to Bordeaux confirmed

Editor

Reds winger Eto Nabuli will move to Top 14 side Bordeaux-Begles at the end of the Super Rugby season, with Kane Douglas reportedly set to join him.

Nabuli has inked a one-year-deal with the South of France outfit after a season which saw him fall down the pecking order at the Reds. This, despite the Fijian flyer scoring eight tries and making four assists the previous season, associated with 26 percent of the total tries by the Reds in that season.

The 29-year-old was rewarded with his first Wallabies cap when he made his debut against Scotland in the 2017 June internationals.

Nabuli, who has an unbelievable rags to riches story, was talent spotted while carrying bags as a hotel porter and has understandably decided to cash in on a lucrative European move at this stage in his career.

The former National Rugby League Star was linked back in March with a move to Bordeaux along with Kane Douglas, who according to Rugby.com.au, could still follow Nabuli to les Girondins.
