While its Portuguese serial scorer Raffaele Storti will leave the club at the end of the current financial year, ASBH will register a reinforcement on the wing for next season: Aminiasi Tuimaba.

14 tries in 44 Top 14 matches under the colors of the Paloise Section, Aminiasi Tuimaba will arrive at the Raoul-Barrière stadium next season, according to Rugbyrama.

The solid Fijian winger (1.85 m, 96 kg), Olympic champion at VII in 2021 in Tokyo, will digitally replace Raffaele Storti, who will join Stade Français after two years loan in Hérault.

A fourth recruit

At almost 29 years old, Tuimaba has only played four Top 14 matches in the Béarnais jersey, suffering from competition from Samuel Ezeala, Théo Atissogbe and even Emilien Gailleton.

After the arrivals of second row Cameron Dodson (Aurillac), third row Baptiste Abescat (Narbonne) and right pillar Christian Judge (Saracens), Tuimaba is the fourth recruit of the’ AS Béziers, co-leader of Pro D2.
