Nahuel Lobo for Argentina

Called in: Nahuel Lobo

Montpellier have completed the short-term signing of young Argentina prop Nahuel Lobo as a medical joker for injured Pumas colleague Juan Figallo.

Figallo underwent surgery on his neck on Tuesday and is out for the rest of the season.

21-year-old Lobo, who made his international debut in November 2012 in a 39-22 defeat against France in Lille, returns to Montpol for his second stint after arriving as cover for Ne'ema Leleimalefaga at the beginning of the season.

Montpellier are currently fifth in the Top 14 table.
