Benetton Treviso sign hooker Tomas Baravalle

Benetton Rugby Treviso have announced the arrival of hooker Tomas Baravalle, who will provide cover in the absence of Engjel Makelara and Ornel Gega.

"Tomas arrives for a trial period during which will have to demonstrate his qualities and deserve the place in the team until the term of the season," commented sporting director Antonio Pavanello.


"Already the accident had happened to Gega we have to lose out on the market but the intent was to wait for November and the end of the southern hemisphere championships. Unfortunately with the injury also Makelara we had to speed up the timetable in order to be able to count on a rose able to offer different solutions for each department. Despite the arrival of Baravalle we continue to look around."

Baravalle was part of the Under 18 Argentina side in 2011 competing in the South American championship, as well as with the Jaguars in the Tbilisi Cup in the 2013/2014 season and the following year with Argentina at the Rugby World Nations Cup.
