Crusaders winger Nemani Nadolo has confirmed that he will move to France to play for the Montpellier Club after the 2016 Super Rugby season.
Nadolo will leave straight after the Super Rugby season ends and has signed a three year contract with Montpellier.
He has scored 22 tries in 27 matches for the Crusaders and was a standout performer for Fiji at the Rugby World Cup.
Nadolo said it wasn't an easy decision to make.
"I am hugely grateful for my time at the Crusaders and I can't wait to get into the 2016 season. I have learnt so much here and really developed my game thanks to the support and advice from the coaches and other team staff here at the BNZ Crusaders.
"I honestly never thought, before getting offered a position with the Crusaders, that I would get to play Super Rugby again. So making the decision to leave a team that has given me that opportunity and shown such faith in me was definitely not an easy one to make.
"I am excited about living in France again and about the opportunity that Montpellier Club have presented. But I still have a season to go here first and I intend to make my last season here a great one and leave on a high note," Nadolo said.
Crusaders head coach Todd Blackadder said Nadolo had made a huge impact both on and off the field.
"When Tabai Matson showed me some footage of Nemani back in 2013 and suggested we offer a contract to this guy, I was immediately excited about what he could bring to our team. He has exceeded our expectations both with his on-field performances and the energy and positivity that he has brought to the team environment," Blackadder said.
