Rugby European Cup: Toulouse will be without full back Nicolas Jeanjean for the Heineken European Cup final against Perpignan at Lansdowne Road on May 24th, while the Perpignan Irish-Canadian number eight Phil Murphy is also struggling to make the final.

Jeanjean, a former French international, picked up a hamstring injury in his side's play-off win over champions Biarritz at the weekend.

While Perpignan are confident that major injury worries surrounding Murphy, John Daniell and Christophe Manas are not of serious concern, the Catalan side go into this weekend with a vital match in the French Championship still to play, one in which Murphy will be unable to take part.

The Canadian international and former Irish schools player was heavily bandaged and limping last week with a small tear in his calf muscle.

While the French Championship is still alive, both Toulouse and Perpignan have now qualified for next season's Heineken Cup competition.
