Simon Zebo is set to join former team-mates Ronan O’Gara and Donnacha Ryan at Racing 92 next season.
The 27-year-old notified Munster and the IRFU earlier this week of his decision to turn down a new contract and move abroad.
The Irish Times has reported that the offer from Racing is in the region of £630,000 with accommodation and a car.
Even so, it must have been a difficult decision for Zebo, for he has in effect also ruled himself out of international consideration from next season onwards, and in the process sacrificed his place at the 2019 World Cup in Japan.
