Felipe Contepomi set for shock return to Leinster - reports
By Online Editors
ESPN are reporting that Argentinian legend Felipe Contepomi is set to quit his role in the national set-up to return to European Champions Leinster.
Contempomi is the current head of the Argentinian XV side, but the former flyhalf would join Leinster as backs coach.
The move - if it goes ahead - comes following the departure of Daniel Hourcade from the headcoach position.
A qualified doctor, Contepomi is the Puma's all time leading point scorer. Daniel Hourcade’s final game in charge of Argentina ended in a 44-15 defeat to Scotland in Resistencia.
Leinster lost the services of Girvan Dempsey, who joined Bath as Attack Coach and will head to the West Country ahead of the 2018/19 season.

Except for the 6N he has won nothing. No WC's, no Lions tours not anything. He is ranked even behind Eddie Jones, who has won a WC with SA and have a better victory rate than Gatland. Keep your so called "best coach" in the world. No one but Wales wants him. A very harsh Hell No comes to mind if anyone asks if they would want Gatland as head coach.
Guess the man is wearing blinders. Rob Howley is howling mad describing Gatland as the best. What a load of 💩
Go to commentsProbably partly true but we in fact have plenty of talent, we just get a kiwi coach to put our best team on the field. Just like Deans and just like Rennie. And he keeps changing the team so Australian players can't get settled. Just like Deans and just like Rennie
