Segundo Tuculet joins Narbonne

Segundo Tuculet is to play in France. The 23-year-old has signed a one-year deal with Narbonne to play in the Pro D2. His contract has the option of an additional season.

The younger brother of Pumas Joaquín, Segundo Tuculet has been a fringe player for both Jaguares and the Argentina XV. He received game time in Super Rugby in 2016 at outside centre.

Capable of playing in the mid-field or the back-three, Segundo Tuculet is the latest player to leave Argentina based on a lack of opportunities. With the UAR having Jaguares as the country’s only professional side places are limited.

In 2016 Segundo Tuculet was close to a spot in the senior roster. He made an appearance for Argentina XV against Chile in June, scoring two tries. 

Tuculet has also represented Argentina in 7s.
