Allub joins Grenoble

Pumas lock forward Alejandro Allub has signed to play for the french club Grenoble during the coming season.

The deal was brokered for Allub, 24, by Italy star Diego Dominguez, who has been working as an agent since 1998.

Allub will join his Puma teammates Diego Albanese and Ezequiel Jurado.

Toulouse and Stade Francais were also interested in the forward but he chosew Grenoble for their Argentinian contingent.

Allub holds an Italian passport so will not take up one of the valuable 'foreign player' spaces at the club.
