Siya Kolisi and family relocate back to South Africa after ending association with French club
Siya Kolizi’s contract with the French club has ended
Siya Kolisi confirmed the end of his association with French club, Racing 92 after a season; he is to rejoin the Sharks in Durban.
“We reached an agreement with the club. I am grateful for the way they handled the situation,’ he told Frech daily L’Equipe.
“When I arrived in Paris, I didn’t know what the future of my international career was but when I started playing for the national team again (in June), I realised that my body has no rest. And above all, if I play for South Africa, I miss three months of the Top 14 season. I am very well paid and it makes me feel like I am stealing from Racing.”
“So, for me, my physical health and the club, I want to do what is right, I don’t want to only invest half of myself. When they recruited me, they thought they had a full-time Siya Kolisi. But I love playing for South Africa so much, I want to continue with the Springboks.”
Siya Kolisi and his family who reloacated to Paris last year, will make a return to South Africa.
