Paul Costes (born 4 April 2003) is a French professional rugby union player who plays as a centre for Top 14 club Toulouse.[1]
Paul Costes was born in Toulouse. He is the son of Arnaud Costes, a former French international rugby union player. He started rugby as a child at the TUC, then joined Colomiers as a junior, before going to Stade Toulousain a few years later, as a second-year cadet.[2]
Costes made his professional debut on 29 October 2022, during the ninth day of the 2022–23 Top 14 season against Bayonne, when he replaced Arthur Bonneval in the 60th minute of play.[3] The following week, he scored the first try of his career allowing his team to obtain a 16–16 draw against Stade Français.[4]
