• Elliot Daly quitting Wasps, expected to join Saracens
Maro Itoje is set to miss England’s Six Nations matches against France and Wales and may be out for the rest of the tournament, because of knee ligament damage.
In better news for the head coach, Eddie Jones, Manu Tuilagi is clear to face France on Sunday after escaping a citing for a shoulder charge on Ireland’s Jacob Stockdale. Itoje’s absence, though, will be keenly felt.
