The French Pro D2 champion for the 2020-2021 season continues to recruit. He announced Monday, June 21, 2021 the arrival of three new players, including the Argentine international half-melee Martin Landajo (33 years old, 84 caps) who is preparing to play in the final of the English championship with his club, the Harlequins.
The USAP is preparing its return to the Top 14. The club had made a verbal commitment to be active on the transfer market if it were to find the elite of French rugby. Not running on gold, he must recruit quickly and smartly, convincing the players sportingly that they come to a club where life is good and not only because of the climate. It started during the season with the arrival as a medical joker in the first instance of Patricio fernandez (26 years). This continued with the arrival of Agen, the Georgian pillar of Agen Giorgi Tetrashvili (27), the Fijian winger of Valence-Romans Eddie Sawailau (25 years old), from the Argentine 3/4 wing of the Union Bordeaux-Bègles Baptist Delguy (24 years old) and the pillar of La Rochelle, Arthur Joly (33 years old).
