Since signing his last contract in February 2024, Bielle-Biarrey\u2019s stock has soared. The electric speedster has enjoyed a sensational season, scoring\u00a028 tries in 25 appearances\u00a0for club and country. <\/p>\n
His blistering pace and clinical finishing have cemented his reputation as one of the game\u2019s premier attacking threats.<\/p>\n
His exploits on the international stage have been equally impressive, with the France star twice being named\u00a0Six Nations Player of the Tournament, further underlining his status as one of rugby\u2019s brightest talents.<\/p>\n
Bordeaux eager to secure their star<\/p>\n
According to\u00a0Midi Olympique, Bordeaux are set to hold initial discussions with the winger\u2019s representatives before the end of April. <\/p>\n
The club are keen to finalise a new agreement before July, when Bielle-Biarrey would otherwise be free to enter negotiations with rival teams.<\/p>\n
Retaining the winger is seen as a top priority for Bordeaux as they look to build their future around one of the most exciting players in the sport.<\/p>\n
No interest in leaving France<\/p>\n
Despite attracting significant attention,\u00a0RUCK sources understand that Bielle-Biarrey has no interest in leaving France\u00a0at this stage of his career.<\/p>\n
The winger is believed to be settled in the Top 14 and remains focused on continuing his development in familiar surroundings.<\/p>\n
This stance is likely to limit the race for his signature to domestic rivals rather than overseas clubs, providing Bordeaux with a boost in their efforts to retain him.<\/p>\n
Domestic rivals monitoring situation<\/p>\n
While a move abroad appears unlikely, several Top 14 heavyweights are keeping a close eye on developments. <\/p>\n
Toulon and Racing 92 are understood to be monitoring the situation closely should negotiations with Bordeaux fail to reach a swift conclusion.<\/p>\n
