Posted by

France’s star player and arguably the best scrum half in world rugby right now has tested positive for COVID according to MailOnline.

The player that has lit the Six Nations alight with amazing skill and the composure of a veteran player. The 24 year old Toulouse back has become the fourth member of the France squad to test positive with head coach Fabien Galthie also testing positive.

DuPont is now set to miss the Six Nations clash against a damaged Scotland side which will be possible good news for the Scots who would not want to play against the dangerous scrum-half.

He will have to self isolate for 10 days along with Galthie and two other members of the coaching staff. France are currently unbeaten but will that change as they come up against Scotland missing so many key elements of the squad?

France are looking for the Six Nations title this season and even a possible Grand Slam if they win their remaining games.
