England centre Manu Tuilagi has been ruled out of action for six months after suffering a torn Achilles, Premiership club Sale have revealed. Sale director of rugby Steve Diamond said Tuilagi would undergo surgery next week. "Manu will be a loss to England and Sale," Diamond said. The injury means Tuilagi will miss England's final match in the 2020 Six Nations and the entire Autumn Nations Cup campaign. jw/lp
