BRISTOL Bears have signed Argentina prop Nahuel Tetaz Chaparro until the end of the season.
The 31-year-old, with 54 caps, is set to join in January and cover tighthead Kyle Sinckler, who is likely to be with England for the Six Nations.
“Nahuel plays both sides of the scrum which will be invaluable for our team”, said Bristol director of rugby Pat Lam.
Chaparro most recently played his club rugby for Los Jaguares in his native country, but has also represented Dragons and Lyon.
