Patrick Ah Van returns to France
Former Widnes winger Patrick Ah Van has joined French Elite 2 Championship side Villegailhenc Aragon (VARL).
Ah Van, 32, scored 95 tries in 123 appearances for the Vikings, and famously returned last season to play for free after the club found itself in special measures following their administration in early 2019.
It is his second spell in France, having previously played for Vinnie Anderson’s side in 2018/19.
The former Samoa international started at centre as VARL kicked-off the new Elite 2 Championship season with a 38-20 win over Villefranche.
