Cooper to leave Toulon and return to Australia Tom Decent Australian playmaker Quade Cooper has confirmed he will leave Toulon for a return to Super Rugby.
Cooper, a 58-Test Wallaby, took to social media on Tuesday evening AEST to tell his 470,000 followers that he would be coming home to Australia. 
"Goodbye. Thank you for everything," Cooper tweeted in French.
"I will miss my brothers and family that I now have in Toulon ... See you soon."
The 28-year-old could have stayed on for another year at the French powerhouse club but has pulled the pin with 12 months left on his contract.
He made a bid to make Australia's sevens squad for the Rio Olympics, but coach Andy Friend made the tough decision that Cooper did not have enough game time under his belt to cement a spot.
While there has been no official statement from Toulon about his departure, Cooper all but corroborated his latest tweet with a call to close mate Jarryd Hayne to join him now the latter won't feature at Rio with the Fiji sevens team.
"When I get back to Aus I'm going to whoop @JarrydHayne at Fifa & in return he will join the super rugby franchise I join. #DealOrNoDeal," Cooper tweeted.
Hayne replied: "If I win, we will both try out for @wswanderersfc #whodoyousingfor."
There has been speculation for months Cooper will make a return for the Queensland Reds and that mail was strengthened further when Wallabies coach Michael Cheika revealed he had been trying to poach Cooper back for some time.
However it is understood Cooper is weighing up between the Reds and the Melbourne Rebels who have also thrown their hat in the ring.
If Cooper was to sign a two-year deal back in Australian rugby for the 2017 season and beyond, he would be eligible for the Wallabies in their Rugby Championship campaign beginning in   August.
