PARIS – France centre Wesley Fofana has been ruled out of next month’s Six Nations after the Clermont player suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon in a Champions Cup game against Exeter on Saturday.
“He suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon in his left leg and he will see the surgeon tomorrow morning as he will probably need to have an operation. He will be out for a long time,” his club Clermont said in a statement.
France start their Six Nations campaign against England at Twickenham on Feb. 4.
