Chris Robshaw has been ruled out of England’s upcoming autumn internationals with a knee injury, sources have told ESPN.
Robshaw, 32, was absent for Harlequins’ European Challenge Cup win over Agen on Saturday, but had featured in all six of his side’s Premiership fixtures this season.
The back-row joins a growing list of players unavailable to England head coach Eddie Jones for the November matches against South Africa, New Zealand, Japan and Australia, including Billy Vunipola, Sam Simmonds and Joe Launchbury, who are also all out due to injury.
Nathan Hughes and Alex Lozowski could also face suspension after being cited for disciplinary offences, while prop Joe Marler announced his international retirement last month.
