After Goosen had a fall-out with the owner of Racing Metro in 2017 about his "retirement" from Rugby, he went back to Paris and got his monthly salary from the Club, but was never selected top play for the club.
The latest situation is as follows (as provided) by News24:-
"Former Springbok Johan Goosen looks set to return to rugby with French Top 14 side Montpellier.
Goosen made headlines at the end of 2016 when Racing 92 announced his retirement.
However, Goosen reportedly took up a commercial director's job in South Africa, which left the French club fuming.
According to French website Rugbyrama, Altrad will now pay for €1.4 million (R20 million) for Goosen to be released from his Racing 92 contract.
Goosen is likely to join Montpellier’s squad from July 2018, the report indicates.
The talented flyhalf/fullback has 13 Test caps to his name since making his debut against Australia back in 2012.
He last played for the Boks against Wales in November 2016, shortly before his 'retirement'."
Mozart will have a fit about this one, After all his favourite Fat Fransie is playing for Montpellier and whereas he has played at flyhalf he is not a flyhalf's backside - or perhaps he is, It is likely that Fat Fransie will be shown the door after the present season and he is likely to join his soulmate Jake White in Japan. No SA franchise will contract him anyway,
Goosen's fall-out with Racing Metro stemmed from the fact that he w2as constantly selected at Full Back and outside center which is not his positions - he believes he really is a flyhalf. That implies that Montpellier is going to use him primarily as a flyhalf.
The other issue relates to the release of Goosen? Mozart will claim that the Montpellier owner is loony to pay R20 million to get Goosen and that the club owners are mentally defective by doing that type of thing - so lets wait for the storm of indignation to follow. . . .
