Keenan set for Ireland Sevens Olympic switch
Written by I Dig SportsHugo Keenan is set to miss Ireland's two-Test series against world champions South Africa this summer and will instead join the Irish Sevens team at the Paris Olympics.
It is understood the Leinster full-back, who played Sevens before switching to 15s, will be a part of the Ireland squad for next week's leg of the World SVNS Series in Madrid.
Before that, the 27-year-old is expected to feature for Leinster in Saturday's Investec Champions Cup final against Toulouse in London having returned from injury to face Ulster last week.
Keenan may also be part of the Sevens squad for the Rugby Europe 7s Championship in Croatia in June, but may return for the latter stages of the United Rugby Championship play-offs if Leinster progress that far.
The Ireland Sevens squad for the matches in Madrid is expected to be announced early next week.
