SA Rugby chief executive Jurie Roux has denied reports linking him with a plum move to the World Rugby headquarters in Dublin‚ Ireland.
It was recently widely speculated that Roux would be leaving the SA governing body at the end for the year to take up the chief executive’s job at World Rugby but the man himself has clarified his position.
“In terms of me joining World Rugby‚ I tend not to lie in these conversations. I am 100 percent committed to SA Rugby because I am enjoying my time here‚” said Roux. Roux said he would not leave SA Rugby in the middle of a challenging period that has come as a result of the outbreak of Covid-19 where they are working on creative and safe ways to return to action."It has been a really tough time and I would hate to leave any organisation in that environment.”
