Dupont to start for Toulouse in Top 14 semi, Ramos out

SPORTS 18.06.2026

Antoine Dupont will start for Toulouse in their Top 14 semi-final against Racing 92 on Friday, but kicker Thomas Ramos is out injured.

Text size:

France skipper Dupont will team up with Romain Ntamack at half-back.

Dupont has not played since May 9 because of an adductor injury.

He won't lead the team out onto Marseille's Stade Velodrome, however, English flanker Jack Willis instead skippering the side.

Turning to Ramos, Toulouse coach Ugo Mola said that "a minor scare means this match won't be for him", without specifying the nature of the injury.

"He's honest, and it's perhaps quite rare at this level, that he doesn't feel 100%.

"Based on the tests that were carried out, he felt he was putting the team at risk, and rather than risk being substituted after 20 or 30 minutes, he preferred to sit out the match," Mola said of Ramos.
