RETIRING: Racing 92's Fijian centre Virimi Vakatawa
A heart condition has ended the rugby career of France and Racing 92 centre Virimi Vakatawa.
“He must stop his career [in France] for cardiological reasons,” the Top 14 club’s Sylvain Blanchard explained at a press conference, a day after it was confirmed the medical commission of the Ligue Nationale de Rugby had barred him from playing in France.
