KEY POINTS:
Sonny Bill Williams is expected to be in the French city of Toulon on Tuesday or Wednesday (NZT) to finalise his contract with the rugby union club, AFP reported today.
Toulon president Mourad Boudjellal said everything was on course for Williams to sign with the club and possibly make his debut in a friendly against Carqueirannes-Hyeres on Saturday.
The 22-year-old New Zealander walked out on his National Rugby League (NRL) club, the Bulldogs, just 18 months into a five year contract last week.
However, the Bulldogs are attempting to legally enforce Williams' contract with the Kiwi international due to appear in a NSW court tomorrow.
