Saracens' Maro Itoje doubtful for England's autumn internationals

22 October 2016 08:08

Maro Itoje is a doubt for England's autumn series after sustaining an injury to his right hand in Saracens' 44-26 Champions Cup victory over the Scarlets at Allianz Park.

Itoje was replaced in the 46th minute after his arm was trapped awkwardly while making a tackle and the 21-year-old lock is to undergo an x-ray to assess the extent of the damage.

"Maro came off with a sore hand. That needs to be examined and we'll know more after the x-ray has taken place," Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall said.
