In the rugby arena, French coach Fabien Galthié has announced his lineup for the upcoming match against Argentina. This will be the finale of the autumn tour for the French team, taking place on Friday evening, and the squad is determined to triumph against the Pumas, aiming for a flawless tour after securing victories over Japan and New Zealand. Galthié has made some bold choices in his roster, notably leaving out key player Grégory Alldritt.
Galthié’s Bold Decision for the Match Against Argentina
Today, Galthié revealed the official team for the clash against Argentina.

Notably, Galthié’s decision to exclude Alldritt has been confirmed, forcing the experienced player to return to La Rochelle. In a different strategic move, Léo Barré has been called up to replace Romain Buros, who had celebrated his debut match last week against the All Blacks by scoring a try. Meanwhile, Charles Ollivon is set to take on the role of number 8, with François Cros making his comeback, which pushes Alexandre Roumat to the bench. In the front row, Uini Atonio steps in for the injured Tevita Tatafu. Galthié’s selection appears promising, and fans can expect an exhilarating face-off against the Argentine Pumas.
