Henry Arundell is poised to participate in England’s upcoming Six Nations campaign next year, as the Rugby Football Union is optimistic about his swift return to the Gallagher Premiership.
In contrast, Jack Willis won’t be able to partake in the Six Nations due to his decision to re-sign with Toulouse following his emergency departure from Wasps, who also faced financial difficulties.
“Any players who went abroad as an outcome of their clubs going out of business and who needed to find employment overseas as a result will be available for the Six Nations in 2024,” RFU chief executive Bill Sweeney said.
“We want the best English players playing in England. In Henry’s case, he will be available for the 2024 Six Nations and then we will work very hard with him and with the Premiership, so that hopefully he can get a contract to come back to England.”
The RFU anticipates receiving the Professional Game Board’s approval for Arundell’s availability in the coming weeks.
