Sharks-bound Bok injured

NEWS: The Springbok lock Eben Etzebeth will spend another spell on the sidelines following his latest injury.

According to media reports, Etzebeth sustained a calf injury ahead of Toulon's Top14 match against the Perpignan.

RMC Sport reported that the Springbok tore a calf muscle which could see him sidelined for the next four weeks.

The 30-year-old made his first appearance of the season against Bordeaux last weekend following a three-month break due to concussion protocol.

Earlier this week, the former Stormers stalwart signed a deal with Durban-based franchise Sharks.

Etzebeth will leave Toulon at the end of the current Top14 season and join the Sharks until 2027.
