Toulon centre Ma’a Nonu is a major doubt for this Friday’s Top 14 Final against Racing 92 in Barcelona, according to reports.

The All Blacks centurion, who joined Toulon after winning his second Rugby World Cup last year, has endured a mixed season but scored in the last weekend’s semi-final win over Montpellier.

However he also appeared to suffer a concussion during a collision attemping to make a tackle on Montpellier centre Anthony Tuitavake.

Nonu’s absense would mean that Mathieu Bastareaud comes into the midfield to partner Maxime Mermoz at the Nou Camp.
