Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus has added Stormers loosehead prop Ntuthuko Mchunu to his squad for their upcoming Test against Argentina and Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry (RGR) series with the All Blacks.
Mchunu joins the group of now 44 players that are preparing for the one-off Test against Argentina in Buenos Aires next weekend and the RGR series that kicks off next week.
The squad assembled in Johannesburg on Sunday evening and resumed their on-field preparations on Monday.
Mchunu earned his fourth Test cap against Scotland during the Nations Championship earlier this month.
The Bok coach is set to name his travelling squad to Argentina for the Test in Buenos Aires on Saturday, 8 August, later in the week, with that group of players and management departing for Argentina in two groups on Saturday.
The remaining players will zoom in on the matches against New Zealand under the guidance of a few coaches, medical staff, and management members at their training base in Johannesburg.
