Toulon and Toulouse are the favourites to land François Trinh-Duc when he leaves Montpellier next summer, reports in France have suggested.

It was confirmed on Wednesday that the France fly-half would leave the Altrad Stadium at the end of this season.

However, Trinh-Duc -- who was overlooked for Philippe Saint-Andre's Rugby World Cup squad -- refused to comment on where he would be headed.

Although the 29-year-old remained tight-lipped, several reports have claimed he will be staying in the Top 14 -- with Toulon favourites to land the playmaker.

The big-spending European champions' president Mourad Boudjellal described Trinh-Duc as a "very good player" but would not comment on whether he will be playing at the Stade Felix Mayol next season.
