BORDEAUX HAVE ANNOUNCED the signing of Joey Carbery.
Munster confirmed that the out-half would leave the province at the end of the season in January.
Carbery, 28, decided to depart for a new playing opportunity outside of Ireland, ending a six-year spell at Munster.
The Ireland international played 56 times since joining from Leinster in 2018. He has endured plenty of injury woe, but Carbery is now targetting a fresh start.
He will represent Bordeaux, who were well beaten by Toulouse in last weekend’s Top 14 final.
The 37-cap international will work under Irish attack coach Noel McNamara in France.
