Immanuel Feyi-Waboso, England's Nigerian-heritage flyer, is on course to be fit for next month's Nations Championship fixtures.
Good news for England and for everyone in the African diaspora cheering on Immanuel Feyi-Waboso. The winger, who proudly carries Nigerian heritage, is expected to be fit in time for next month's Nations Championship matches.
The update will come as a major boost to the England camp. Feyi-Waboso brings pace, finishing power and a knack for making something happen from nothing out wide. Having him available gives the coaching staff a dangerous option in the back three as the new competition gets going.
The Nations Championship is a fresh stage for the sport's top nations, and every selection call carries weight. A fit and firing Feyi-Waboso means England can pick from a full squad rather than managing around a gap on the wing.
For fans across Nigeria and the wider continent, he is another example of African heritage making its mark at the top level of world rugby. Next month, all eyes will be on whether he can turn his return to fitness into a statement on the pitch.
