In Oyonnax, in Castres then in Clermont. The love story between Christophe Urios and Benjamin Urdapilleta continues! The Argentinian opener from Castres (37) has just signed with the Auvergne club for a season, with an optional additional year. Seventh best director this season, the Argentinian international (20 caps) joins a position where ASM is experiencing difficulties. Indeed, the Clermont scorers know the worst percentage of success in the championship against the poles.

“Benjamin is one of those players with enormous demands who allow each member of the group and also the staff to progress. He is a player who leaves nothing to chance, who is very hard on himself” explained Christophe Urios before adding: “He is one of those whom we like to follow because there is no a centimeter difference between what he says and what he does. He is a world reference in his position, a talented player with immense experience.

Benjamin Urdapilleta becomes ASM’s eighth recruit after Marcos Kremer, Pita Gus Sowakula, Mohamed Haouas, Enzo Sanga, Folau Fainga’a, Rob Simmons and Chris Gabriel.
