Toulon’s president, Mourad Boudjellal is not known for being a shy, reserved , hide in the background style owner. He’s the opposite but this weekend the Toulon boss has gone nuclear!

Yesterday, his comments about Julian Savea made headlines, stating he was releasing the All Black (read the comments here) following the defeat to Agen.

Savea was not the only one in the firing line. Rhys Webb was also in line for a verbal spray.

The Welsh scum-half has been in the news lately after his family failed to settle in France and have returned home . Rumours have been circulating that Rhys Webb would also like to return home. The Toulon boss is most likely aware of these rumours and made the below comments to the French media,

“His agents are offering him all over Wales, while he still owes us one more year on his contract.”Don’t worry, I won’t hold him back.”

His agent Derwyn Jones, speaking on behalf of the Webb, said:

“The last month or so has been really difficult for Rhys with his family moving back to Wales because one of his sons found it hard to settle out there and adjust to being in a French language school.

“However, Rhys wants to make it clear he hasn’t had any conversations with the club at all about leaving Toulon.

“He has a strong family network which will support his fiancée and children back home in Bridgend.

“Toulon have openly said he’s one of the most professional players they have come across.

“Rhys’s immediate goal is to help the club start winning again and make the top six in the French league.

“The club have spoken to me to say they are concerned about how Rhys will cope without his family.

“But Rhys has assured me he’s committed to the club.

“The club have not indicated to me they are unhappy with Rhys, which is a totally separate conversation.

“So Rhys remains committed to the team.”
