Aphiwe Dyantyi Signs Short-Term Deal With France’s Narbonne

The former Springbok joins a Nationale contender seeking depth for a promotion push.

Overview

  • Racing Club de Narbonne Méditerranée confirmed Dyantyi has signed through the end of the season.
  • He is set to link up with the squad shortly as injury cover for the backline, with Axel Müller among those sidelined.
  • Narbonne described him as a powerful, hard‑running back with speed, line‑breaking ability and strong game awareness.
  • Dyantyi received an early release from his Bulls contract, which had been due to run until June.
  • The winger returned from a four‑year doping suspension in 2023 and has since had limited game time with the Sharks and Bulls after a 2018 breakout year for the Springboks.
