Munster’s Director of Rugby has admitted he has held talks about a return to South Africa.
Erasmus left a role with the Springboks to join Munster on a three-year deal last summer and while he admits there has been talks, he remains committed to the southern province.
“I was in South Africa my whole life so I know the set-up really well,” he said.
“I’m big friends with the current coaches and management team.
“There’s been formal and informal chats the past few months. Some have been requests, some have been pure chats.
“It’s just speculation at this stage.”
“I’ve got a contract with the IRFU and nothing’s changing.”
Erasmus said he did not want speculation over his future to be a distraction ahead of Saturday’s big game. Munster take on Toulouse in the quarter finals of the Champions Cup this weekend.
