Burning fat while bulking // Rugby player

Hi there,

After spending hours reading different threads on this forum and spending years playing around, I decided to actually get serious and apply some discipline to my nutrition and workout routine to reach my goals.

90kg
179cm
19% bodyfat (I got scanned a couple of months ago at my gym) - even tho from the pics that I see on this forum I would put myself probably around 22%.

I usually train (rugby) twice a week and hit the gym 3 times a week (lift + 2 sessions of HIIT).
I never been fat or skinny but never had great results either from my training - mostly because of my snacking habits.

My right leg is currently injured (rugby can be a nasty sport...) so for the next 4 weeks my workout consists of targeted chest session (that I found on this website), pull-ups and bent-over barbell rows.

Here are the macro I am trying to hit every day (I practice IF so I eat in 2 meals + 1 small snack):
2104 kcal
184g prot
237g carbs
47g fat

My question is, I am trying to build on muscle while burning the extra fat on my belly/legs. Basically I'd like to get ripped in the next 12 months and get a bodyfat around 12/13% while improving my performances (I usually follow a wo program designed for my position playing rugby).
Currently I am cutting (I believe to maintain my weight I should eat around 2650kcal / day).

Am I doing anything wrong? Or maybe I should focus on building muscle before cutting?

I'll upload some pics later.

Cheers everyone
