Toulon have confirmed the arrival of the experienced English scrum half: Michael Young, as the World Cup Joker.
The former England scrum-half began his professional career at the Newcastle Falcons in 2008. After three seasons, he joined Leicester where he won the Premiership, before heading to Bath.
Young announced his return to his roots in 2015 where he reunited with the club of legend Jonny Wilkinson and played more than 100 games with the Black and White.
“Club player, Michael is a fine strategist and a good finisher. Lively, he is able to weigh around the rucks. He will also bring all his experience to the group. Having been captain of Newcastle several times and especially at the end of last season, in the absence of Will Welch.”ย explains Pierre Mignoni, Director of Rugby at the Rugby Club Toulonnais.
