Former Boks coach Meyer to take over at Stade Francais

PARIS (Reuters) - Former South Africa coach Heyneke Meyer will take over at Stade Francais next season after signing a two-year contract with the option of a further year, the Paris club said.

Meyer will move next month to observe the end of the current campaign and prepare for the 2018-19 season, the club added.

It is the first job for the 50-year-old since he quit as Springboks coach after the 2015 Rugby World Cup, where South Africa finished third.
