Ireland legend Ronan O’Gara is set for his second stint in the Top 14 after La Rochelle confirmed that the former fly‑half would join the club as head coach.
Planet Rugby reports the 42‑year‑old was the defence guru at Racing 92 between 2013 and 2017 before he left to take a role with the Crusaders in Super Rugby.
O’Gara has impressed in the southern hemisphere, helping the New Zealanders to dominate the competition over the past couple of campaigns.
He was part of the coaching staff which guided the Christchurch outfit to the title in 2018 – their second in as many years – and they are on course to make it three in a row having finished top of the regular season table.
