Tomás Lavanini (born 22 January 1993) is an Argentine rugby union player who plays as a second row for Leicester Tigers in England's Premiership Rugby, the top division of domestic rugby. He previously played for the Argentine Super Rugby side Template:Rut Jaguares, before joining the Jaguares, he had played the 2014–15 Top 14 season with French side Racing Métro.[1][2][3]

Career

He represented Argentina Under 20 in the 2013 IRB Junior World Championship.[4]

He made his senior debut for Los Pumas against Uruguay in April 2013 and was subsequently called into the squad for the 2013 Rugby Championship as injury cover for Manuel Carizza[5] where he made his championship debut as a 74th-minute substitute in his side's 17-22 defeat to South Africa on 24 August.[6]

Tomás was part of the national team that competed at the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

Lavanini was red-carded in the second test against South Africa in the 2017 Rugby Championship, following two yellow cards being issued to him. Lavanini made his return from suspension at home against New Zealand in Buenos Aires only to be yellow-carded for a dangerous tackle.[citation needed]

On 6 May 2019, Leicester Tigers announced Lavanini's signing, with him set to join after the 2019 Rugby World Cup.[7]

He was red-carded for a high tackle on Owen Farrell in the pool game against England in the 2019 Rugby World Cup for which he received a four match ban.[8]

Lavanini is the most sin-binned rugby player in Argentina's history.[9]

In January 2021 it was confirmed that he would join French Top 14 side Clermont Auvergne ahead of the 2021–22 season.[10]
