If Toulon president Mourad Boudjellal is to be believed, then All Blacks centre Ma'a Nonu is set to join Montpellier next season.

Boudjellal is used to making waves in the transfer market for his own club but seems to have a let the cat out the bag about Montpellier's future plans.

Montpellier qualified for next season's Heineken Cup by beating Toulon on the final day of the Top 14 regular season on Sunday.

In a live interview on French television, Boudjellal suggested that 28-year-old Nonu has already agreed to leave the Hurricanes to join Montpellier after the World Cup.
