The three-cap Wales International made his international debut during the 2022 Autumn Nations Series.
With the 60 cap rule to represent Wales set to be scrapped, the centre would be free to make the move to Sandy park and continue his international career.
According to Midi Olimpique, the 20-year-old is close to agreeing a deal but is waiting to the rule change to be confirmed. Ospreys hooker Nicky Smith is also linked with a move to Sandy Park.
Hawkins first featured in the Wales U20 squad at the age of just 17 and made his regional debut for the Ospreys as an 18-year-old.
Equally adept at both outside-half and centre and a proficient goal kicker, Hawkins studied BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma in Sport (Performance and Excellence) at Neath Port Talbot College.
Hawkins hails from Ystalyfera and is a former student at Cwmtawe Comprehensive School, playing most of his youth rugby at Pontardawe RFC with time also spent at Neath Athletic.
He graduated through the Ospreys’ academy after playing for Swansea Valley in the Dewar Shield, with a brief stint at Aberavon cut short by the coronavirus pandemic.
