South Africa's 2019 Rugby World Cup winner Herschel Jantjies will join Bayonne next season on a two-year deal, the French Top 14 club announced on Monday.

Jantjies, 28, made the last of his 25 test appearances in August 2023 before missing out on World Cup selection, four years on from lifting the trophy.

"The South African half-back will join us from the Stormers next season for two seasons," the Basque outfit added.

"He will bring his international experience to the club," they added.
