Jack Singleton: Gloucester hooker joins Toulon for remainder of season

Jack Singleton missed much of last season because of a leg injury that required surgery
Gloucester's England international hooker Jack Singleton has signed for Top 14 club Toulon on loan for the remainder of the season.
The 27-year-old, capped three times by England, will return to the Cherry and Whites for the 2024-25 campaign.
Singleton has made two Premiership appearances after returning from a serious leg injury last December.
"Jack has worked incredibly hard to return to full fitness," said head coach George Skivington.
"When this opening came up, we felt that it would be a good opportunity for Jack to get some regular rugby under his belt to help him get back to the levels we saw from him before his injury.
"With the injuries we had last season at hooker, we obviously brought in George McGuigan to support Santi Socino, and then we had Seb Blake impressively step up from the academy, so we feel that hooker remains a strong position for us.
"We wish Jack all the best in Toulon, and we're looking forward to having him back with us in the summer."
Singleton joined Gloucester from Saracens in 2020 and signed a contract extension in May.
