Waratahs number 8 Langi Gleeson, who has maternal links to Fiji, has been recalled in the Wallabies squad for their two-match Rugby Championship tour to Argentina next week.

Gleeson was sidelined due to an ankle injury but has recovered well with coach Joe Schmidt naming the 23-year-old as part of the 19 forwards travelling to Argentina.

Schmidt has also recalled centre David Feliuai and hooker Brandon Paenga-Amosa for this tour.

However, Wallabies centre Hunter Paisami has been ruled out due to injury.

He suffered an apparent knee injury and came off the field early in the Wallabies' 30-12 loss to the Springboks in Perth last Saturday.

Paisami joins a long injury list that includes winger Filipo Daugunu and loose forwards Fraser McReight and Liam Wright.

The Wallabies will face Argentina at 10am next Sunday, and the Springboks will host the All Blacks at 3am next Sunday.
