Raffaele Storti (born 19 December 2000) is a Portuguese rugby union player, who plays for Stade Français.[1][2]

Club career[]

Having played for CR Técnico until 2019,[3] Storti then joined the new Peñarol Rugby franchise in Uruguay.[4] But just after he made his debut in the Súper Liga Americana,[5] the league was quickly brought to a halt because of the Covid-19 pandemic, and the young Portuguese returned to his former club in his home country, to compete in the 2020-2021 season.[6][7]

On the 31 August 2021, he signed for the Top 14 side Stade Français.[2]

International career[]

A standout player at the 2019 under-20 Trophy with Portugal, scoring the most tries in the competition, Storti quickly became part of the senior team,[8] appearing to be one of rugby union most promising prospects outside of Tier 1 nations.[9][10][11]
