Flying Fijians skipper, Waqaniburotu reportedly looking for a new club

Fiji’s captain at last year’s Rugby World Cup, Dominiko Waqaniburotu is reportedly looking for a new club after it emerged in French media that he will not extend his one-year stay at Pau.

The 34-year-old hooked up with the Top 14 club on a one-season deal following the 2019 World Cup in Japan, but he has not had the best of times, making just four league appearances (and one in the Challenge Cup) in an injury-hit campaign that was officially terminated on Thursday by French officials due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Prior to his switch to Pau, Waqaniburotu has spent seven productive seasons at Brive whom he had joined following his emergence in the New Zealand NPC with Waikato. He was highly regarded at Brive.

Waqaniburotu had led Fiji to a historic win in Paris over France in 2018.
