Simon Zebo back in picture for Toulouse

Toulouse’s long-standing admiration for Munster’s Simon Zebo has resurfaced with the French Top 14 club again linked with a move for the Ireland star.

Zebo, 25, returned to his native province’s colours last weekend following Ireland’s World Cup campaign in which he impressed at full-back against Romania and Italy but was overlooked for the Pool D finale against France and the quarter-final with Argentina which marked the end of the road for Joe Schmidt’s squad.

And with the World Cup over less than 48 hours, the European transfer rumour mill has cranked up for another season with wing/full-back Zebo the focus as his current three-year deal comes to an end next June.
