Cobus Reinach has agreed to a three-year extension with Top 14 side Montpellier that will likely see the Springbok scrumhalf play the final years of his career in France.
The Top 14 leaders confirmed the news on Friday. Reinach joined the French club in 2020 from Northampton and quickly established himself as the starting scrumhalf in Philippe Saint-Andre’s team ahead of Benoit Paillaugue and Georgian Gela Aprasidze.
The 32-year-old World Cup winner, capped 21 times by the Springboks, has scored seven tries in 13 league matches this season.
