It’s called following in your father’s footsteps. Mathis Galthieson of the coach of the XV of France, signed his first professional contract with Colomiers, where Fabien Galthié played from 1986 to 2001. Also scrum-half, the 21-year-old young man signed up until 2025 with the club from the Toulouse suburbs, currently 5th in Pro D2 and which can consider climbing to the Top 14.
Mathis Galthié played 11 of the first 24 league games, including four as a starter, and scored two tries.
A nice gift for the father
“I am very happy to sign my first professional contract with Colomiers, a club which opened the doors of the Pro D2 to me”, he reacted in a press release. “I can’t wait to get back on the pitch and help the team make the Michel-Bendichou stadium vibrate”.
The signing of his first professional contract was formalized on the birthday of his father, who celebrated his 54th birthday after leading the Blues to second place in the Six Nations Tournament.
