Racing 92 have approached Lucio Sordoni. L’Equipe reports that The Top 14 club is signing the Puma as a medical joker. Sordoni will cover for French test prop Demba Bamba who has undergone knee serge which will see him out of action for many months.
It marks a return to Europe for Sordoni. He played two seasons in the United Rugby Championship (URC) for the Glasgow Warriors. Prior to playing in Scotland, Sordoni also played Super Rugby in Argentina for Los Jaguares and in Australia for the Melbourne Rebels. He also had a trial with Mont de Marsan but injury prevented him from playing in the Pro D2.
Sordoni was on the Argentine roster for the two-match tour of New Zealand this month. He started at tight head prop in the loss against the All Blacks at Eden Park. He was replaced by Joel Sclavi who plays in the Top 14 for La Rochelle. It was Sordoni’s 7th cap. He debuted against Ireland in 2018.
The Pumas tight head is 26-years-old. He comes from Argentina’s this largest city, Rosario and is a product of the Atlético de Rosario club. He played u20’s for Argentina before becoming a Jaguar and a Puma.
