Lloyd White commits to Toulouse for maiden Super League season

Wales international Lloyd White has signed a new one-year deal with Toulouse for their first season in Super League.

The 33-year-old hooker joined the French club from Widnes ahead of the 2020 season, scoring five tries in 13 games for the club so far.

Cardiff-born White has won 20 caps for Wales but has recently been named in Jamaica’s train-on squad after he wanted to represent his heritage, but he has yet to play for the Reggae Warriors.

On committing to Toulouse, Lloyd White said: “I’m really happy to continue the adventure at TO for another year. It has been a fantastic season for all of us and I can’t wait to see what the Super League has to offer.

Toulouse president Bernard Sarrazain said: “Lloyd is an excellent player, coupled with a very pleasant boy. We couldn’t envision next season without him.”
