Dakuwaqa, who helped Fiji clinch a gold medal with victory over Great Britain at the Rio Games in 2016, admits he ‘drank too many beers’ and has offered his full apology to Pierre Pages after viciously biting his cheek.
The incident occurred at a team party at a restaurant in southern France last month and left Pages with a bloodied face, with the French rugby player requiring 20 stitches, leading to a full investigation by Biarritz.
French rugby side Biarritz confirmed they had terminated Dakuwaqa’s contract in a public statement following their probe, while the club have also said they will not be making any further comments.
Olympic rugby champion Masivesi Dakuwaqa has been sacked by French club Biarritz for biting a teammate during an alcohol-fuelled night out.
Dakuwaqa, speaking to French outlet L’Equipe, said: ‘I’d so much like to apologise to Pierre.
