England centre Manu Tuilagi’s injury curse has struck again after the England centre was ruled out for the remainder of the season.
The Tigers star will miss the final two games of the season but should return to action in time for England’s World Cup camps in May.
It is the latest blow for struggling Leicester, who still need to pick up points to guarantee their safety from relegation.
