Fiji winger Josaia Raisuqe, sacked by Top 14's Stade Francais after a drunken incident in July, has been handed a lifeline by second tiers, newly promoted Nevers, the club revealed on Monday.
Raisuqe was accused by a 35-year-old woman of sexual assault outside a Paris nightspot which sparked a brawl between the player and the woman's friends.
The player was fired by Stade Francais in mid-August.
Raisuqe, who was celebrating his 23rd birthday on the night of the incident, claimed he had little memory of the altercation due to how much alcohol he had consumed.

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
