Premiership side Leicester Tigers are poised to sign Argentina hooker Julian Montoya for the 2021-22 season, BBC Radio Leicester understands.
Montoya, 26, was Argentina's World Cup hooker in 2019 and has won 59 caps for his country.
Tigers already have 33-year-old Tom Youngs, Jake Kerr and Shalva Mamukashvili playing in the same role but are looking longer term.
Montoya plays for Buenos Aries-based Super Rugby side Jaguares.
