Springbok captain Siya Kolisi and his family are relocating to Paris, France were Siya will be joining Racing 92 rugby team.
Siya’s wife, Rachel Kolisi took to Instagram to share how bittersweet this mice is for their family.
“Officially our last month in South Africa before our move to Paris. I am so grateful for the opportunity and the experience but in the same breath I am devastated because I love South Africa with my whole heart and I love living here, juggling a lot at the moment and the furthest thing from being ready for a move overseas.
Siya spoke about how his career has compromised his quality time with his family which played a part in the decision he made to relocate. “Rachel and the children have sacrificed so much throughout my career and I am forever grateful for that. The move to Racing 92 will enable me to spend more time with my family which is something I have always wished for, this is an exciting time for my family and we would like to thank everyone for their support” said Siya
According to Kolisi Foundation, co-founders Siya and Rachel will continue to work in France and the rest of Europe on fundraising efforts and establishing new partnerships.
“We are excited at the opportunities that will arise from their move, as the Kolisi foundation, we will remain unconditionally committed to our work with our current partners in South Africa as we pursue our vision of changing narratives of inequality in South Africa, to the Kolisi family we wish you all the best in your new adventure” said the foundation.
