Edoardo Todaro is in line to make his Italy debut against Chile this Saturday (22 November, kick-off: 9.10pm Italy time) as the Azzurri face Chile in the Quilter Nations Series, with fellow Saint Danilo Fischetti also named on Italy’s bench.
The 19-year-old winger joined Saints Senior Academy over the summer and shone in Black, Green and Gold instantly, scoring four tries in his six outings for the Club so far – while also claiming a Player of the Match medal in Saints’ Gallagher PREM draw with Exeter Chiefs.
Todaro – who was named amongst the Gallagher PREM Player of the Month shortlist for October earlier this week – will earn his maiden cap should he enter the action at Stadio Ferraris in Genova.
Fellow countryman and club teammate Fischetti is also named on Italy’s bench for the clash, with the loosehead prop set to earn his 58th cap should he enter the action on Saturday.
