Rodrigo Bruni signs for Vannes

Argentine back-rower Rodrigo Bruni has signed a deal to play for French second-tier outfit Vannes.

The 27-year-old played in the Pumas’ 25-15 stunning Rugby Championship triumph over the All Blacks last month.

“The problematic situation at the moment with the Jaguares made this move possible,” said Vannes manager Jean-Noel Spitzer.

“It’s an incredible opportunity to welcome such a player to the club.”

Bruni had been playing for Argentina’s Jaguares in Super Rugby but with that tournament shelved due to the Covid-19 pandemic, he has instead signed a one-year deal with the Pro D2 side.
