The search for a medical joker has resumed in recent days at UBB and it has just been completed, Christophe Urios confirmed this Tuesday morning at a press conference. The manager’s choice fell on James Hart.
The 30-year-old Irishman arrived in Biarritz in 2019 and was one of the architects of Biarritz Olympique’s comeback last season. He knows the Top 14 well having played there with Grenoble (2012-2016) then with Racing (2016-17) before returning to the country for two years to evolve with the Munster franchise.
James Hart will be Girondin until the return of Jules Gimbert, victim of a cruciate ligament rupture in August. He will join UBB next Monday. He will form with Maxime Lucu and Yann Lesgourgues a trio of number 9 passed by the BO box.
