Former French international Mathieu Bastareaud will join Lyon after a short spell at RU New York, the French Top 14 side said on Saturday.
“LOU rugby is happy to announce that Mathieu Bastareaud has signed a two-year contract starting next season,” Lyon said in a statement.
Centre Bastareaud, who won 54 caps for France between 2009-2019, will be back in France in the coming days, Lyon said, after the remainder of the Major League Rugby season was cancelled amid the coronavirus crisis.
Bastareaud, 31, became the biggest name to play in the United States when he joined New York on loan in December 2019. He played most of his professional career at Stade Francais (2007-2011) and Toulon (2011-2019) before joining Lyon last year.
