[QUOTE="BPM, post: 998213, member: 59968"] Yeah - just speculating. I really hope Ibitoye is not leaving. If it’s true, at don’t see how a move to Agen furthers his career? It certainly won’t help any England ambitions in the short-medium term. I can already see the media clamour to pick him under exceptional circumstances if he has a few good games. I appreciate careers are short and money is important, but I guess I have an over-romanticised view that it should be secondary to on-field ambition. Joining a mid-tier (possibly a generous description) club in France tells me Ibitoye doesn’t want to win trophies* and doesn’t back himself to break in to the England squad. *To clarify, I don’t think Quins are on the verge of being a trophy winning side, but I do think we’re closer to that than Agen.
