WATCH: Can 20 year old French centre live up to the hype?

By Callum Whitten

Outside of France, the name Damian Penaud is rarely recognised.

Penaud burst onto the international scene in June, scoring a try against the Springboks in Durban and putting in a solid shift at centre.

The young talent scored against Brive last weekend, which his father Alain Penaud's former team. Penaud Jr. looks set to secure a place in France's squad for the end of year internationals, and will hopefully help Clermont win some silverware.
