We’ll keep Wilkinson here at any price, vows Toulon boss

MONEY will be no object when it comes to keeping Jonny Wilkinson at Toulon, according to the club’s owner, Mourad Boudjellal.

England fly-half Wilkinson, the record points scorer in Test rugby, moved to the south of France in the summer of 2009 and has made a huge impression, helping the Top 14 outfit to the final of last season’s Amlin Challenge Cup and qualifying for this season’s Heineken Cup.

He has started the new season in a rich vein of form, scoring 23 points in Saturday’s 28-16 win over champions Clermont Auvergne, but his contract expires at the end of the season.
