Socino worth Pumas call - Richards
- 161
Newcastle Falcons director of rugby Dean Richards believes Argentine centre Juan Pablo Socino would be capable of fitting into international rugby union.
Socino, 26, is yet to make his full Pumas bow although he has played for the Jaguars 'A' side.
He made his Premiership debut this season with Falcons after Championship spells with Nottingham and Rotherham.
"I think he's a quality player, how he hasn't played for Argentina I don't know," Richards said.
"He is probably one of the most professional players I have come across, he's outstanding.
