Major League Rugby club looking to sign Dan Carter?

Dan Carter could be the next World Cup-winning All Black to sign up for a spell in Major League Rugby as RugbyPass have been informed that one of the competition’s top teams are looking to snap up the legendary out-half for the 2021 season. Carter, who turned 38 in March, announced last week that he is finished with Kobe Steelers, his Japanese club for the past two campaigns.

With no indication that he is yet ready to retire, he could follow in the footsteps of fellow 2011 and 2015 World Cup winner Ma’a Nonu and have a late-career flutter in the MLR. Nonu, who turns 38 in May, signed for San Diego Legion for the 2020 season and fitted in well before the campaign was terminated in March after just five rounds of matches due to the coronavirus pandemic. 

The Kiwi midfielder was among of a clutch of global stars who had opted for a stint in the American League in 2020, with Rugby United New York snapping up Mathieu Bastareaud and Drew Mitchell, Old Glory DC signing Tendai Mtawarira, while Rene Ranger featured for Colorado Raptors.

      New York have since lost Bastareaud to a two-year deal back in France at Lyon, but they have already held talks regarding next season with ex-England captain Chris Robshaw while there is also speculation that some current Saracens players could yet opt to spend the first six months of 2021 in the MLR rather than play a full season in the English Championship following the club’s Premiership relegation.

      Carter has confirmed on Twitter that he has not been approached by Rugby United New York.

      Carter, whose other club experiences outside of New Zealand have been in the French Top 14, took to social media on Friday to call time on his Kobe years, writing: “I want to thank the club, fans and my team-mates for welcoming me and making the last two seasons some of the most enjoyable rugby I have ever played. The club’s future is looking very bright, and I’m glad I got to add my little piece to the Kobe Steelers legacy.”

      Crusaders rookie earns 'other than Dupont' praise from All Blacks star

      I’m reaching out today with a heartfelt plea, hoping my experience can serve as a warning to others. I’m one of the millions who have lost everything to the Vourteige scam, and my story is a painful reminder of how easily trust can be exploited. It all started with promises of high returns: a 5-month contract, 2% monthly withdrawals on a free margin account. Everything sounded too good to be true, but I was drawn in by their convincing tactics and the allure of financial freedom. I trusted them so much that I borrowed a significant amount of money from banks, believing in the legitimacy of this investment. Unfortunately, I failed to see the warning signs and ignored the growing doubts I had.I ended up investing a substantial sum of $450,000, fully expecting to see profits and withdrawals, as promised. But that never happened. No matter how many times I tried, I couldn’t access any of my funds. The platform’s responses became more vague, and the withdrawals never came through. It soon became clear that I had been scammed, and I was left in a situation that could have led to complete financial ruin.At this point, I felt utterly hopeless. I was on the verge of bankruptcy, and the thought of facing my family, especially my parents, with this news was unbearable. They had no~ idea how~ deep I had gone into this investment, and I couldn’t bear to lose their trust. The shame I felt was overwhelming.But just when I thought there was no way out, I discovered a legitimate recovery team called Trust Geeks Hack Expert Website. www://trustgeekshackexpert.com/ They offered a glimmer of hope when everything seemed lost. The team worked tirelessly to guide me through the process of recovering my funds. Thanks to their dedication, I was able to recover 100% of my lost crypto funds. I can’t express how grateful I am for their expertise, support, and the relief I now feel.I’m sharing my story not to relive the pain, but to warn others. If you’re considering investing in anything that promises high returns with little risk, please do your research. Check trusted websites like Reddit and others to see if others have had similar experiences. Be cautious, and never invest more than you can afford to lose.Lastly, if you find yourself in a situation like mine, don’t give up. There are legitimate recovery teams out there that can help. Protect yourself, your finances, and your loved ones. The risks are real, but there is hope for recovery. E m a i l : info @ trustgeekshackexpert .. com And w h a t's A p p  +1 7 1 9 4 9 2 2 6 9 3
