The Vincent Tshituka twist in Siya Kolisi's Parisian escape

Siya Kolisi’s imminent return to the Sharks is set to encourage a host of French clubs to pursue a move for Vincent Tshituka, who is in the final year of his contract with the franchise.

RugbyPass sources in France tell us that Toulon, La Rochelle, Pau, Montpellier and Toulouse all had the uncapped Congolese-born open-side flanker on their shopping list for next summer.

But they could offer him an immediate escape route using Kolisi’s imminent return as a wedge to praise open the departure gates despite his happiness to see out his contract in Durban.

    Philip Snyman on how BlitzBoks restore pride in the SVNS jersey

    Tshituka, 25, who played alongside younger brother Emmanuel at the Lions before his move to the Sharks in May 2022, can also play at No 8 and lock, making him even more attractive to French suitors.

    The signing of Kolisi, as well as a heavy summer spending programme that has seen them bring in Springboks Jordan Hendrikse, Andre Esterhuizen, Jason Jenkins and Trevor Nyakane, has been costly for Sharks owner Marco Masott.

    Ironically, Emmanuel, who can play anywhere across the back row, was also signed at the end of last season, adding to their squad’s embarrassment of riches.

    And allowing Tshituka to leave for the French immediately instead of at the end of the season would at least allow them to recoup some money albeit a small fraction of what they have splashed out to avoid a repeat of last season’s disaster.

    A member of the side that beat Gloucester in the Challenge Cup final in May, Tshituka, has made 31 appearances for the Sharks and is likely to have won international honours but for South African government red tape.

    Even though the family arrived in Johannesburg in 2002, they would need to be granted citizenship to launch a bid for a place in Rassie Erasmus’ squad.

    Hello everyone here, I am here to warn you to please do not make the same mistake I made in the past, I was a victim of a bitcoin scam. I’m so glad that I have gotten all my funds back without any stress thanks to CYBERSPACE HACK PRO company. For me. I am posting this review because I want to be of help to someone out there going through a lot to recover their bitcoin even though many people told me it’s impossible. I invested about $632,000 from a Binary Operation company I found on Telegram. After much depositing, I decided to withdraw after several weeks but the withdrawal wasn’t successful. I contacted the binary operation through their email and phone number, though I didn’t get any response from them and that was when everything clicked that I was scammed. Some weeks later I got an email from them insisting I should invest more money if I want to withdraw my money which I rejected, and I never heard from them again. I was really devastated at this moment and felt so bad that my hard earned money was gone. Then I was introduced to this wonderful recovery company Called CYBER SPACE HACK PRO company, so I emailed them Cyberspacehackpro(@)rescueteam.com explained to them what happened and all I had to do was to follow there instructions so they can help me recover my funds which they did and i got all my money back i am so happy i decided to share my good news for those that are having same issues should contact them via
