Montpellier sign rising Italian flyhalf star Paolo Garbisi

In a blow for Italian club rugby and a coup for Philippe Saint-André, Montpellier have signed rising star Paolo Garbisi.

The Treviso flyhalf has been a standout for both his club in the PRO14 and for the national side, having already amassed 10 caps for the Azzurri. His kicking abilities mean that he will go some way to filling to void left by the departure of Alex Lozowski and Johan Goosen from the club.

Saint-André describes the 21-year-old as Italy’s best player in this year’s Guinness Six Nations.

“Paolo was the best Italian player of the last 6 Nations tournament. He is a bit like the nugget of Italian rugby.

“He really wanted to take up the challenge of progressing and playing for a big club. We, with the departure of Alex Lozowski and Johan Goosen we really needed a player like him, able to play 10, 12, 15, kicker.”

He signed a two-year contract with MHR, who finished a lowly 10 in this year’s Top 14.

“He really has wanted to come with us, to grow, to train in a professional structure.”

Garbisi (6ft, 88kg), for his part, is looking ahead to a new adventure in a new league and country.

“I am really happy to join a big club like Montpellier!” said Garbisi. “I can’t wait to resume the season and start this new chapter of my career in a new country.”

Former All Black Craig Newby lands head coach role in England

I was approached by an individual through WhatsApp and presented with the opportunity to invest money to earn profits on the crypto asset trading platform Bitnice, located at bit-nice.com. Following the stranger’s instructions, I opened an account on the platform and deposited crypto assets into the platform. After a while, my account showed I had made profits. But when I attempted to withdraw funds, the platform demanded that I pay money first. This got me thinking so loud until my cousin rightfully told me I was being scammed and as such I should reach out to RECOVERYCOINGROUP AT GMAIL DOT COM which I did and a few days later I was able to recover my funds from the platform. The website is no longer operational. There were about 1.61744435 Bitcoin and 13.725443 Ethereum tokens at the site. All thanks to the Recovery Coin Group that came through for me. I am grateful.
