Cipriani considering move to soccer?
Sat, 04 Sep 2010 12:35
England flyhalf Danny Cipriani has been training with Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer to maintain his fitness levels ahead of a move to Super 15 franchise the Melbourne Rebels.
Cipriani joined the Rapids this week to work out at altitude and to "engage in competitive sessions," coach Gary Smith told the team's website.
Cipriani had short spells training with English sides Tottenham and Queens Park Rangers earlier this year.
He has persistently maintained he is not considering a move to soccer, but the rumours just won't go away.
The former Wasps No.10 is scheduled to link up with the Melbourne Rebels for pre-season training in October.
He has won seven caps for England since making his debut in the 2008 Six Nations, but was told by manager Martin Johnson he would not be picked for next year's World Cup if he moved to the southern hemisphere.
