About Joan Caudullo

Joan Caudullo took charge of Montpellier Hérault Rugby in the summer of 2024, succeeding Patrice Collazo, and extended his contract to 2029 in July 2026. He works under director of rugby Bernard Laporte, the former France coach and federation president, in a structure that has drawn plenty of attention. Caudullo steadied a club that had been fighting relegation and has rebuilt around a younger squad.
