Toulouse have confirmed that hooker Mourad Kriouche has left the club after talks for a new deal fell through.

The 27-year-old came through the ranks at Olympique, before making his professional debut for the club in 2011.

Kriouche also enjoyed short spells at Carcassonne and London Skolars before that.

The France international made a total of 155 appearances for the club in eight seasons at the club.

In a short statement released by Toulouse, it read: “The entire club thank Mourad for all these years he has dedicated to the club and wish him good luck for the rest of his career.

“He will always be welcome at Toulouse Olympique.”
