- 2703
Ealing Trailfinders have announced the signing of Argentina international Segundo Tuculet for the 2018/19 season.
The 24-year-old has played the majority of his rugby at full-back, but can also play on the wing and in the centres as he brings further depth to the back-line for the upcoming campaign.
The 5ft 11” Argentinian began his career with Los Tilos back in his home country, and then moved to Jaguares where he featured in their debut season in Super Rugby, regularly facing the best teams from the Southern Hemisphere.
Tuculet then swapped South America for France to spend a year with Narbonne and will now re-locate to West London. As the brother of current Argentina international Joaquin Tuculet he has plenty of rugby pedigree, and is well known for his pace and natural ability.
He has represented his country on a number of different levels, after pulling on the famous blue and white jersey at Under 18s and 19s age grade before then spending two years on the Sevens circuit. His first cap for Argentina came in 2016 against Chile, and he marked the occasion with two tries.
