AB's Dan Carter to get paid 8.25 million dollars In French rugby contract...
The All Blacks are set to lose star first-five Dan Carter after the World Cup. English paper the Daily Mail has reported that Paris-based club Racing Metro will offer $8.25m for Carter's services.
If the deal goes through, Carter will become the world's highest-paid player, making $2.75m a season over three years.
"He's assessing his options and will make a decision soonish," said Carter's agent Simon Porter. "He's the world's best rugby player, and there are lots of people including the NZRFU interested in him."
Porter said there are interested clubs "all over Europe" and that the Racing Metro deal was "just speculation". France, however, would seem a logical destination for Carter. He previously played one season for Perpignan before returning to New Zealand and the Crusaders.
If Carter were to sign with Racing Metro he would arrive in November for the start of the Heineken Cup.
