IRELAND AND LEINSTER star Hugo Keenan is set make a return to the Ireland 7s set-up ahead of this summer’s Olympics in Paris.

The 42 understands that Keenan is expected to miss the Ireland 15s team’s tour of South Africa in July as a result, while he could play his last game of the season with Leinster in the Champions Cup final this weekend.

Keenan played for the Ireland 7s from 2017 until 2019 and it’s thought that this once-in-a-lifetime chance to play at the Olympics was hard to resist. The IRFU has high hopes its men’s and women’s teams can compete for gold medals in Paris, with Keenan’s return set to be a major boost for James Topping’s side.

Keenan could be back with the Ireland 7s squad as early as next week for the final leg of the World SVNS Series in Madrid, presuming he comes through the Champions Cup final unscathed.

I’ve not seen any rumours of the identity of the back three player they’re supposed to be throwing money at.

A massive win for them and a scratchy win for Benetton and who knows….?

Might even be able to persuade you to sample a bit of Glaswegian hospitality?!

Munster announced new deals for Kilcoyne (Summer 2025), Archer (January 2025) and Nash (Summer 2026).

Also being linked with Saffer winger / Full back Thaakir Abrahams who is currently at Lyon. Kolbe - esque apparently.

Presumably, the other three QFs have been similarly locked in but not announced?

Yes I think so. Leinster v Connacht is the last game of the season at the RDS due to gigs etc, so their QF will be at Lansdowne Road I believe.
