“Paddy Jackson, in the tradition of Irish 10s, knows how to bring his individual qualities to benefit the collective; a proven kicker, a talented playmaker, Paddy can bring his international experience to the team.”
Perpignan have confirmed the signing of Paddy Jackson on a two-year contract.
Twenty-six-year-old Jackson’s contract with the IRFU and Ulster Rugby was revoked in April following a review into his behaviour in the wake of his acquittal on rape charges.
The news comes after Stuart Olding signed a two-year contract with French club Brive late last month.
