Penaud may join the UBB squad, although his starting place is not yet confirmed. Grégory Alldritt, meanwhile, remains with the France team as a reserve for the match against Fiji.
He joins Guillaume Cramont, Thomas Laclayat, Paul Graou and Axel Desperes among the five reserves.
Le Figaro confirms Alldritt’s status and the return of Penaud and Depoortere to Bordeaux. This decision extends an earlier arrangement that made both internationals available, but Alldritt’s status has now changed.
Vannes and Bordeaux meet on Sunday at 3 p.m., according to the schedule published by actu.fr. UBB will go into the match without Matthieu Jalibert and after Hugo Reus suffered a broken wrist, while Penaud and Depoortere add options in the back three.
