Will one star chase another? In any case, the Union Bordeaux-Bègles did not take the first comer to replace Semi Radradra, one of the best players in the world, who will take the direction of Bristol next season. The leader of the Top 14 has just formalized the arrival of the very talented New Zealand winger, Ben Lam (28 years old, 1.94 m, 105 kg).
The Wellington Hurricanes player signed a two-year contract with the Girondin club. He will have his first experience in Europe.

- UBB Rugby (@UBBrugby) February 18, 2020Son of the former third line Samoan international center Pat Lam, Ben Lam is a real serial scorer with 29 tries registered in 47 Super Rugby matches. He was also one of the center pieces of the All Blacks Sevens for a long time: 54 tries registered in 84 games!
The New Zealander is the first UBB rookie for next season. He should be followed very quickly by the young South African hooker of the Cheetahs, Joseph Dweba (24 years old, 1.75 m, 108 kg).
