Lions assistant coach Gregor Townsend has said the teams ‘are still hopeful’ Russell will be fit to play again soon and revealed the number 10 will return to light training on Monday ahead of the second test.

On Russell’s injury, Lions coach Townsend said: We are now five, six days into his recovery. He had an injection into that area.

“He is out of his boot so he will start the rehab process gently and then we are hoping he will be back involved in full training.

“It’s unlikely he will be involved in the first Test but we are still hopeful he will be available for the last two.”
