 Dominici won his 65th cap against Argentina in the World Cup |
Veteran French winger Christophe Dominici announced his retirement from international rugby on Saturday. The 35-year-old, who made the decision after Stade Francais's 33-6 win over Montpellier in the French league, won 65 caps and scored 23 Test tries.
"Playing for France is over. It has been a big part of my life but now it's time to turn the page," he said.
"There are other players and it's a new story beginning for France with the objective of the 2011 World Cup."
Dominici made his French debut in February 1998 in a 24-17 win over England and he won his last cap in the 34-10 defeat to Argentina in the third-place play-off for the 2007 World Cup last October.
