Toulouse sign French international

Toulouse Olympique have confirmed the signing of French hooker Éloi Pélissier on a two-year deal from London Broncos. 

The hooker announced he would be leaving the Broncos in order to be closer to his family.

He helped the Broncos achieve promotion to the Super League, and helped the club in their first Super League season for five years. He has also featured for Catalans Dragons and Leigh Centurions.

Pélissier said: “I am very proud to join Toulouse Olympique.

“I love challenges and it is a great challenge to join a very ambitious team with which I hope to re-live Super League, as with London in 2018.

“Rugby League in France needs a second club in Super League, and I will give 100% every second to contribute.”
