Ex-Glasgow Warriors centre Alex Dunbar exits Scottish Rugby for newly promoted Brive - reports
Glasgow Warriors centurion Alex Dunbar is to take up a one year deal with Jeremy Davidson's Brive - report the BBC.
Glasgow previously revealed that the centre would be moving on at the end of last season, following 119 caps in a decade-long career at Scotstoun.
The 28-year-old, who enjoyed a spell on loan at Newcastle Falcons at the end of the season, was a fixture in the Warriors midfield during his time at the club, with his brand of hard-running rugby making him a threat to defences throughout the league.
Capped 31 times by his country and with seven test tries to his name, the 6 foot 3 star played in Scotland’s November tests against Wales, Fiji and Argentina.
Dunbar has made 92 Pro 14 appearances in his nine and a half seasons with Glasgow and a further 27 in the Champions Cup.
Dunbar will join former Ireland centre Stuart Olding in Brive's midfield.

i think Argentina v France could be a good game too, depending on which Argentina turns up. The most difficult to call is Scotland Australia.
Go to commentsSmith is playing a different game with the rest of the backs struggling to understand. That's the problem with so called playmakers, if nobody gets what they're doing then it often just leads to a turnover. It gets worse when Borthwick changes one of them, which is why they don't score points at the end. Sometimes having a brilliant playmaker can be problematic if a team cannot be built around them. Once again Borthwick seems lacking in either coaching or selection. I can't help but think it's the latter coupled with pressure to select the big name players.
Lastly, his forward replacements are poor and exposed either lack of depth or selection pressure. Cole hemorrhages scrum penalties whenever he comes on, opponents take advantage of the England scrum and close out the game. Is that the best England can offer?
