Simon Zebo is reportedly readying himself for a return to the red of Munster next season, with the Irish province and his current side, Racing 92, expected to confirm the news later today.
The 31-year-old left Munster in 2018 to join the French club, although his try scoring record with the province remains intact.
Speculation had been mounting over recent weeks as Zebo's three-year contract neared its end, with earlier reports also linking him to English side London Irish.


However, ahead of the expected announcement later today, Zebo tweeted a picture from his Munster days, seemingly confirming the return.
The Cork man tweeted: "à bientôt", meaning 'see you soon' in French, tagging the official Munster Rugby Twitter account.
The return will make Zebo eligible for selection in the Irish team, which will likely be a welcome boost for Andy Farrell's side following their third place finish in the 2021 Six Nations.
