Johnny Wilkinson Press Conference in Tokyo
...The 25-year-old Wilkinson, who is in Japan as part of a three-leg promotional tour of the far east with his kit sponsor...
..."One of my goals is to become fluent in another language and French is a language I have a tiny bit of a base in. The idea of going to play in France, perhaps to learn the language or even coming here [Japan] is definitely a suggestion that lingers with me."
