PARIS : Stade Toulousain hooker and France international Peato Mauvaka has suffered a serious knee injury and will be out for Sunday's Champions Cup semi-final against Bordeaux-Begles, the club said on Tuesday.
Local media later reported the injury as a ruptured cruciate ligament.
It is the latest setback for Toulouse, who have already lost star scrumhalf Antoine Dupont to a similar injury in March and saw Scottish fullback Blair Kinghorn ruled out last weekend, also with a knee problem.
