Los Pumas Legend Takes Jaguares Reins

The Argentina Rugby Union have confirmed that Gonzalo Quesada will become the third Jaguares coach in as many years ahead of the 2019 Super Rugby season.

The former Los Pumas flyhalf played in the 1999 and 2003 Rugby World Cups and extended his career until 2008 when he retired in Hindú.

He was the top point scorer at the 1999 Rugby World Cup in Wales, scoring 102 points and represented a number of clubs in France including Pau, Stade Francais, Narbonne and Beziers.

Quesada first coaching job was with the French national squad where he helped the side to a runners-up finish at the 2011 Rugby World Cup.

Following that stint, he took over the reins at Racing 92 (then Racing Metro) before joining Stade Francais in 2011. 

Quesada will takeover over from Mario Ledesma who led the Jaguares to the Super Rugby playoffs before being named as the Los Pumas new head coach.
