Bath head coach Steve Meehan has pulled off a major coup by tempting Montpellier's Jacques Boussuge to sign a one-year deal at the Recreation Ground.
The 25-year-old former France Under-21 winger has been on trial with the club during pre-season and impressed Meehan with his positive and determined attitude.
The Bath coach said: "Jacques has been really solid at training and in the matches and has got some good experience behind him.
"We feel that with a little more time here he can develop his game further in a short period of time. He has a great attitude and we think he's going to fit in really well with the squad and our ambitions for the future."
