Highly-rated former Wales U20s prop Lewys Jones is on the move in France as he looks to further his rugby education.
The 6ft, 19st stepson of ex-Neath and Wales flanker Phil Pugh linked with Pro D2 club Nevers in 2020, signing a three-year contract. The powerful tighthead made his league bow when he featured off the bench against then leaders Mont-de-Marsan last term. You can read about his first game in rugby's "craziest" league here.
Now Jones has gone out on loan to Stade Dijonnais, the club where iconic France international Morgan Parra started out, with the idea being for the 20-year-old Welsh speaker to bank game-time.
