Ex-All Black Kerr-Barlow wants to stay in Top 14 after La Rochelle exit
Former New Zealand scrum-half Tawera Kerr-Barlow said on Thursday he wants to remain in the French Top 14 after his La Rochelle deal finishes at the end of the season.
Kerr-Barlow, 34, has won the Champions Cup twice since joining the club in 2017 but is unlikely to be offered a new contract.
Ronan O'Gara's La Rochelle have signed young France scrum-half Nolann Le Garrec for next term as Kerr-Barlow's replacement.
"I think it's going to be my last season with La Rochelle," Kerr-Barlow told reporters.
"After that, I don't know, I'm not in the conversation.
"Whatever happens, I will continue to play rugby, in the Top 14 for another club," he added.
Former Chiefs half-back Kerr-Barlow has missed three of his side's four games this season with a minor thigh injury suffered in round one.
He is set to return for Saturday's game with Lyon.
"I've been disappointed with not playing since but I could have made things worse by playing," Kerr-Barlow said.
"I can't wait to play with La Rochelle again. The motivation is there," he added.
