Reports that Siya Kolisi was leaving Racing after just one season of his three-year deal had been circulating since early August.
After the rumours circulated for weeks, Siya Kolisi finally left Racing 92 and now the French club will begin life without the influential Springbok captain. Picture: Thomas Samson/AFPas they host Clermont in the French Top 14 on Saturday in a stadium very different to their ultra-modern indoor Paris La Defense Arena.
Racing's game, which will also be ex-England captain Owen Farrell's home debut, will be played at a fourth-division football ground on the other side of Paris. Toulouse beat Ronan O'Gara's team in both finals and in last season's semi-final as well as in 2021 European Champions Cup final. La Rochelle have not won at Stade Ernest-Wallon since 2017.
