“I think the best part at the moment is your whole career you’re told how to train, what to do, and so on and so.
"I’m away from that, I’ve enjoyed my fitness, my movement more than ever. It’s really enjoyable. Playing lots of football.
“I also feel my best rugby could be in front of me,” said the 35-year-old. “Or I might never play again. And physically, I feel world-class."
Cipriani, who has played for Wasps, Melbourne Rebels, Sale Sharks, Gloucester, and Bath, announced he is currently participating in informal training sessions with England's Jonny Wilkinson.
“I kick and mess about. I shoot basketball once a week with Jonny Wilkinson. We did kicking a couple of days ago… He’s an exceptional human. We talk about life man.
“We do kicking together. I really enjoy it a lot. I get a lot out of it.”
When asked about who he'd like to join, he mentioned La Rochelle, Harlequins and Bristol Bears.
