England’s Feyi-Waboso Ruled Out of France Six Nations Clash Due to Concussion

Immanuel Feyi-Waboso, the promising 21-year-old winger for England, will be sidelined for Saturday’s crucial Six Nations showdown against France in Lyon due to concussion.

Feyi-Waboso earned his first start for England in their thrilling 23-22 victory over Ireland last Saturday, contributing significantly with a crucial carry that set up Marcus Smith’s decisive drop goal in the dying moments of the match.

Unfortunately, Feyi-Waboso experienced symptoms of a concussion following a knock to the head during the game, prompting the England camp to prioritize his health and well-being above all else.

“We don’t take any risks with that sort of stuff,” emphasized attack coach Richard Wigglesworth. “There was no major incident. He had a knock and didn’t feel quite right, so he reported the symptoms and then was removed accordingly.

“He’s obviously gutted, but being the smart lad he is, he reported his symptoms. He did the right thing,” added Wigglesworth, applauding Feyi-Waboso’s responsible approach to his own health.

With Feyi-Waboso ruled out of contention, England will likely turn to Elliot Daly to fill the void on the wing. Daly, who started the opening matches of the tournament, brings valuable experience and versatility to the team.

Despite the setback, England remains focused on their objectives as they head into the final round of matches in the Six Nations. With Ireland leading the table with 16 points and England closely behind in second with 12 points, every match holds immense significance in determining the ultimate outcome of the tournament.

Meanwhile, France finds themselves in fourth place, level on 11 points with third-placed Scotland, setting the stage for a captivating finale to the competition this weekend.
