31-year-old Beale is currently contracted to the Waratahs whom he joined after a stint in 2016/17 with Wasps, and had revealed that he only penned a deal until the end of the 2020 Super Rugby season due to the uncertainty of the new Wallabies head coach.
Expected to join the French side in July, Beale has played in three World Cups, played 92 Tests for the Wallabies and equaled Benn Robinson’s record of 148 Super Rugby matches for the Waratahs.
He’s also scored more than 50 professional tries during his career in Australia.
His arrival at the club will fill the void that will be left by Brice Dulin, who is bound for La Rochelle at the conclusion of this season.
