Connacht coach Pete Wilkins said he is confident the IRFU will work towards keeping Bundee Aki here after speculation emerged on Friday that Toulon were interested in signing him.

Aki, who joined Connacht a decade ago, was superb as they scored a bonus point win over Dragons at Dexcom Stadium as he heads into Irish camp for the November internationals.
