Scarlets release prop Chris Apoua after he suffers a torn Achilles injury, ending his involvement ahead of the new United Rugby Championship season.
Both outlets report that Apoua was a summer signing for Scarlets and that the injury is confirmed as an Achilles tear. The reports describe this as a setback for the club as it prepares for the upcoming competition, with Apoua no longer available as planned. Aside from the injury details and the timing relative to the season, neither source provides additional information on an expected recovery timeframe or replacement plans.
Overall, the coverage aligns on the core facts: Scarlets have parted ways with Apoua following the torn Achilles, and the club faces a loss of a new front-row option before the United Rugby Championship starts.
