Matias Alemanno: Gloucester sign Argentina lock

Matias Alemanno has won 61 caps for Argentina

Gloucester have signed Argentina lock Matias Alemanno on a "long-term" deal.

The 28-year-old, who has 61 international caps and played at the World Cup in 2015 and 2019, has joined the Premiership side on a undisclosed-length contract.

Gloucester's new head coach George Skivington told the club website Alemanno was a "fantastic" signing.

"He's a physical and abrasive player, and his style of play will really suit the Premiership," Skivington added.
