Former England flanker Steffon Armitage has taken to Instagram to share a photo of him in his new kit, after it was announced that he is to join Major League Rugby runners-up San Diego Legion.
The back-row said in his post that he was “thrilled” for this “next chapter”, alongside a photo of a number eight shirt.
The five-cap England international said he was “Excited to be back in red and black”, referring to his time with Toulon, with whom he won three European cups and was named the European Player of the Year in 2014.
He will compete against a number of his former Toulon teammates in the MLR, with Mathieu Bastareaud set to join Rugby United New York and Samu Manoa already playing for the Seattle Seawolves, as well as a former England teammate Ben Foden, who also plays in New York.
