The 35-year-old is understood to have previously held talks with Bath but those negotiations fell through. With flyhalf Johan Goosen struggling with injuries, the Bulls are said to have pushed to retain Le Roux as a versatile option in their backline.
Having joined the Bulls in 2023 from Japanese club Verblitz, Le Roux’s decision to remain in South Africa is according to Rapport been influenced by having a home on the Val de Vie estate near Paarl.
