Webb in line for French return

Wales and Lions scrum-half Rhys Webb could return to France next season to end his career with his CV doing the rounds of Top 14 and ProD2 clubs.

Ospreys ace Webb, who will be 35 in December, spent 18 months playing for Toulon before leaving under a cloud for a short spell in the Premiership with Bath.

Webb is exploring his options for next season and is keen to see if there is an opportunity for him in the top two divisions of French rugby. He has 40 Wales caps so would still be eligible for the national side.
