Francisco Ferronato Replaces Nicolás Solveyra in Argentina XV

Francisco Ferronato has replaced Nicolás Solveyra in the Argentina XV roster. The national ‘A’ side will take-on Toulon this coming Saturday in the first of two fixtures.

Solveyra had been named in the roster for the match but has been ruled out through ill discipline. The CUBA prop was red carded on Saturday playing in the URBA Top 12. He was sent off playing against Atlético del Rosario and for this reason hase been replaced.

Ferronato has previously featured for the Argentina XV. His most recent occasion was in the World Rugby Nations Cup in Italy.

This coming Saturday’s friendly will be played at CASI. It is to be a curtain-raiser for the 2017 Nacional de Clubes Final between Hindú and Tala.
