Glasgow Warriors: Scottish Huw Jones joins Toulon in the summer

Leith-born Jones, who has 58 caps for Scotland, began his career with the University of Cape Town and moved on to Western Province and the Stormers before his first stint with Glasgow from 2017.

They now go from the side currently sitting second behind the Stormers in the United Rugby Championship to second in the top 14, behind only Toulouse on points difference.

Jones, who made 82 appearances during his two stints with the Warriors, returned from injury in scoring form in Saturday’s 33-21 win over Clermont Auvergne in the Champions Cup.

His highs for Glasgow include a cross for the third – and ultimately match-winning – try in URC’s grand final win over the Vodacom Bulls in June 2024, one of 28 tries in her colors to date.

Selected for the 2025 British and Irish Lions tour of Australia, he appeared in all three Tests and scored a try in the deciding win in the second Test.

Toulon noted that his performance earned him a place in the 2025 World Rugby Dream Team.

They go on to describe him as a “complete player” who will bring his “high-level experience, strength, line-breaking ability, speed, as well as his sense of play and defensive awareness”.
