Scrum-half Morgan Parra, 33, bid farewell to ASM Clermont on Sunday evening on the lawn of Marcel-Michelin at the end of the 26th and last day of the Top 14during which the Auvergnats beat Montpellier (20-15).
At the club since 2009, the number nine (71 selections in Blue) had decided to leave the mountains for “living another rugby, a different way of working” . A historic figure in ASM, with 300 matches on the clock and two Brennus Shields won (2010, 2017), Morgan Parra was given a standing ovation by his stadium when he left the field in the 66th minute of game, in tears.
