WATCH: Zebo still wants to force his way into 2019 World Cup Squad

So there was to be no fairytale ending for Simon Zebo at Munster with the winger playing his last fame for the province in the weekend’s 16-15 loss to Leinster.

Zebo’s move came at a cost however as he was cut adrift from the Irish squad that would go on to win a Grand Slam.

In an interview with Donal Lenihan, Zebo said that he was not bitter by his omission and hasn’t ruled out a return to the national side in the future and reckons he can still force his way back into contention.

I’m going to give everything I have.

I’m going to make sure I play really well, do my best to help Racing, but also get picked for that World Cup in 2019. If not, then, I’ll wait for 2023.

You can watch the entirety of Zebo’s interview below. Video credit Against the Head RTÉ.
