FIFITA MAKES SCARLETS EXIT
Carmarthen Journal
|July 09, 2025
VAEA Fifita has left the Scarlets to join newly-promoted French Top 14 side Montauban.
The French club reached the top flight after defeating Grenoble following an unlikely Pro D2 playoff run.
They have now moved to sign the 33-year-old Tongan international who previously played Test rugby for New Zealand - ahead of their first season back in France's top division.
Fifita leaves Llanelli after three years, having joined from Wasps in 2022. It's understood the Welsh side have received a transfer fee as part of the move and have a replacement signing lined up.
During his time at Parc y Scarlets, the lock and back-rower played 56 times, scoring 10 tries.
"It's not been an easy decision for myself and my family to move and I have really enjoyed my time at Parc y Scarlets with a great group of players," said Fifita.
