Harlequins sign Italian scrumhalf Tito Tebaldi

English Premiership Rugby club Harlequins have announced that they have signed Italian International scrumhalf Tito Tebaldi from Ospreys for the rest of the season.

Twenty-seven-year-old scrum-half Tebaldi has played for Italy 20 times to date after making his debut in 2019.

He joined the Welsh side from Zebre ahead of the 2013/14 season and has featured 19 times during that period.

The Italian will replace Sam Stuart in the squad, who has left the Club for personal reasons.

Harlequins Director of Rugby, Conor O’Shea commented, “In the circumstances we are delighted to welcome a player of Tito’s experience, who is looking forward to a fresh start. We hope we can provide the right impetus for him to re-launch his career through Harlequins.”

Tebaldi added, “I’m really excited to be joining Harlequins. I can’t wait to play for the Club and I am grateful to have been given this opportunity.

“I’m looking forward to moving to London and continuing my career there.”
