Former England wing and NFL convert Christian Wade is set to make a much-anticipated return to rugby this weekend.
The 31-year-old is slated to feature for French giants Racing 92 in a sevens tournament on Saturday, nearly four years on from his last rugby appearance.
It is rumoured that the Top 14 side are looking for a medical joker and wing Wade could be an ideal addition to their squad as they prepare for 2022/23.
Winning just one cap for England, Wade is viewed by many as someone who didn't fulfil his full potential with the national side.

This list has a total of 37 England total caps combined. Dan Cole, Toby Flood and Tom Wood all have more caps individually than this five won combined.
5. Christian Wade (One cap)
The 2013 British & Irish Lion quit Wasps in order to pursue a lucrative career in the NFL, having grown disillusioned with rugby union. The 29-year-old was one of the most recognised names in the domestic game, but his continued absence from the international set-up – having won just one England cap on the 2013 tour of Argentina – had left him frustrated and fed up of continuously being overlooked. What a waste.
