Molina Named in Pumas Training Camp Ahead of Autumn Nations Series

One of Exeter Chiefs' newest signings, lock Franco Molina, has been named in the Los Pumas training squad ahead of the 2024 Autumn Nations Series.

In preparation for the November Window, Los Pumas will come together as a squad in a three-day Camp in Paris. It will take place from Monday, October 28, exactly one month after the last Rugby Championship match against the Springboks in Nelspruit. 

It will be the first meeting of the national team after having completed its participation in the TRC, where three victories were achieved for the first time in history.

In the last matches of the year, Felipe Countomi's team will face Italy, Ireland and France. Below is the detailed fixture:

• Vs Italy: Saturday, November 9 in Udine (Stadio Friuli).
• Vs Ireland: Friday, November 15 in Dublin (Aviva Stadium).
• Vs France: Friday, November 22 in Paris (Stade de France).

Felipe Contepomi, head coach of Los Pumas, referred to the Camp de Paris and the reunion with the players: "We are very happy to meet the team again after what was a very demanding Rugby Championship. These weeks apart served to recharge energies, but we have the challenge of picking up where we left off. 

"We have three very important games coming up and the Camp will allow us to arrive at the competition with rhythm. We seek to close the year in the best way, our goal is to continue growing and that is what we focus on, on being able to build as a team and improve day by day, training by training".
