Joey Carbery is set to join Top 14 side Bordeaux Bègles next season. The Munster fly half confirmed that he would be leaving Munster at the end of the season earlier this week.

The 28-year-old is reported to have agreed a two year deal with the French side by Sud Ouest. 

Carbery joined Munster from Leinster in 2018 and got off to a great start scoring six tries in his first 15 appearances for the Munster side.

He went on to make 56 appearances for Munster and has scored 477 points to date. Carbery has been hit with a number of serious injuries during his six seasons with the province and is nearing return to play after his most recent wrist injury.

Carbery has donned the Ireland jersey on 37 occasions with 25 of those appearances coming during his time with Munster.
