”I’m really excited to be joining Bath Rugby and hopefully helping them to challenge for silverware next season," he told the club's website.

"Bath play a good brand of rugby that I believe will suit my game and I’m excited to work with the new coaching team.  They have some excellent players in their squad and my first challenge is to get into the side and make that starting shirt my own.”

Bath Rugby Head Coach, Gary Gold, said: “We’re really excited to have Horacio join Bath Rugby for the new season and are looking forward to him getting stuck into training with the rest of the squad.

"He’s a very good player who is able to play two positions at a high level which brings great diversity and strength in depth to the team.  We believe his exposure playing for Argentina in the new Rugby Championship format against the All Blacks, South Africa and Australia will further develop him as a player and Bath Rugby can only benefit from that.”
