Munster centre Frisch agrees Toulon move
Antoine Frisch committed his international future to his native France earlier this year

Munster centre Antoine Frisch will leave the Irish province at the end of this season to sign for French Top 14 side Toulon.
Frisch's departure had been expected after his decision to commit his international rugby future to his native France as opposed to Ireland.
The centre, 27, joined Munster from Bristol in the summer of 2022 and helped Graham Rowntree's side clinch last season's United Rugby Championship.
Frisch, whose Munster contract was scheduled to run out at the end of next season, played for the Emerging Ireland side in South Africa in late 2022 but was called up to the France squad for this year's Six Nations although he is yet to earn a full cap.
A Munster statement on Friday confirmed the centre's impending departure to Toulon although he will continue to represent the province over the coming weeks as they attempt to retain the URC title.
"Antoine has been a fantastic addition since joining from Bristol in 2022 and there are a huge few weeks to come before he departs with our best wishes," continued the Munster statement.
