Spies to leave Bulls?

Cape Town - Bulls skipper Pierre Spies could play his rugby abroad from next season.

According to Netwerk24, the Springbok No 8 has received offers from Europe and Japan.

Coach Frans Ludeke said some of the senior players in the team has a "few big decisions" to make in the next while.

"We'll have a more clearer picture over the next two weeks," said Ludeke.

A player like Francois Hougaard (wing/scrumhalf) has already indicated that he will play for the Canon Eagles in Japan, but the Bulls are hopeful to have him return for the Super Rugby season.

"We are positive that the players who are off to play in Japan will return for Super Rugby. Some of the players need to make big decisions and have to weigh up two offer," said Ludeke.
