Argentina called up three replacements for their upcoming Nations Championship campaign. Injuries ruled out several key players this week. The squad recently completed a three-day training camp in London.
Soler Replaces Injured Carreras
Rodrigo Martinez Manzano, Matias Moroni and Mateo Soler joined the squad. Soler replaces Santiago Carreras. Carreras sustained a severe knee injury playing for Bath. He will miss the remainder of the season. Soler recently made his test debut against Australia.
Moroni Nears Milestone Appearance
Moroni replaces Toulouse centre Santiago Chocobares. Chocobares suffered a head knock last weekend. Moroni now has a chance to reach 100 test caps. Prop Manzano replaces Thomas Gallo. Gallo underwent surgery on his left wrist. He injured the wrist playing club rugby in France.

The squad will reunite early next week. They face Ireland on November 6. Tests against Italy and France follow shortly after. The team will conclude their campaign at Twickenham. The Nations Championship finals take place in late November.
