The 27-year-old was sent off on October 23 during the 8th day of Top 14 for a high tackle on Toulouse scrum-half Antoine Dupont.
According to the LNR, Stade La Rochelais has asked to benefit from the "
head contact process
" of World Rugby, so that the sanction of its pillar is reduced by one week subject to its participation in a training workshop on the technique of tackle.
Reda Wardi was called up for the first time in the extended group of the XV of France last month, to prepare for the three autumn tests against Australia, South Africa and Japan.
He was replaced there by Lyon pillar Jérôme Rey the day after his red card against Toulouse.
