By PA
Glasgow have allowed Domingo Miotti to join French Top 14 side Oyonnax Rugby – just over a month after the fly-half agreed a contract extension at Scotstoun.

The 27-year-old Argentina international joined the Warriors from Jaguares in 2021 and after bedding in during his first campaign in Scotland, he made a big impact last term as Franco Smith’s side reached the final of the Challenge Cup.
Revealing news of his departure on Thursday, Glasgow said: “Although Miotti had originally agreed a contract extension with Glasgow Warriors for the 2023-24 season, a move to France provides an opportunity, driven by his international aspirations, to play more regularly.
“This is a decision the club supports, agreeing to release Miotti from his contract.”
Head coach Smith added: “We wish Domingo the very best with his move to France. He is a valued member of our squad who will be missed within the group.”
Following Miotti’s exit, Ross Thompson, who has recovered from injury, and Duncan Weir will be Glasgow’s two specialist stand-offs for the season ahead, with the versatile Tom Jordan providing another option for the number 10 jersey.
