England winger Feyi-Waboso suspended from 2-test series in Argentina
DUBLIN (AP) — England will debate the worth of taking Immanuel Feyi-Waboso on its Americas tour next month after the winger received a two-match suspension on Sunday.
Feyi-Waboso was sent off during the England XV's 26-24 loss to a France XV on Saturday at Twickenham.
He caught Antoine Hastoy in the head with a swinging right arm in an attempted first-half tackle. His yellow card was upgraded on review to a 20-minute red card.
A World Rugby disciplinary hearing confirmed it was a dangerous tackle and suspended Feyi-Waboso for both of England's tests in Argentina on July 5 and 12.
He will be available for the test against the United States on July 19 in Washington, D.C., if he completes World Rugby's tackle school.
Saturday's game was Feyi-Waboso's first action since December, when he dislocated his shoulder. He missed the Six Nations and a possible place in the British and Irish Lions squad.
England is set to name its touring squad on Monday.
France lock Cameron Woki, who was sent off in the same game for an illegal clearout, will have his hearing on Tuesday.

Aston Villa Star Is Desperate For A Move To Manchester United: Should Amorim Go For Him?
Aston Villa Star Is Desperate For A Move To Manchester United: Should Amorim Go For Him? In a recent report, The Sun claimed that Aston Villa star Emiliano Martinez is desperate for a move to Manchester United this summer. It is understood that the Argentine talent is keen on sealing a move to the Mancunian club this off-season. Martinez's Impressive Form In English Football Last Season Martinez had an impressive season at the West Midlands club after he put in a series of solid performances for them in the Premier League. The Argentina international participated in 53 matches for the Villans in the previous campaign, conceding 61 goals and keeping 16 clean sheets in multiple competitions. Advertisement The 32-year-old managed to catch the eye at times for Aston Villa and did well to complete 78.7% of his attempted passes in the Premier League (stats via His current contract at Villa Park will run out in the summer of 2029. Hence, Man United would have to launch a big offer if they want to recruit the Argentine custodian in this transfer window. BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA – JUNE 10: Emiliano Martínez of Argentina handles the ball during the FIFA World Cup 2026 South American Qualifier match between Argentina and Colombia at Estadio Más Monumental Antonio Vespucio Liberti on June 10, 2025 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. (Photo by) Should Manchester United Boss Ruben Amorim Go For Martinez? Martinez can be a safe pair of hands in between the sticks when he is playing with confidence on the field. He doesn't mind putting his foot through the ball when being chased down by the opposition attacker and is a solid handler of the ball as well. Advertisement The Argentine keeper has got a wealth of experience in the Premier League and won't take much time to settle into life at Man United. Martinez would undoubtedly enhance the quality of Ruben Amorim's first XI. He would serve as an upgrade over Andre Onana who struggled to be consistent with his performances for the Mancunian club last season. At 32, Martinez has still got a few good years left in his locker to play at a high level. He might even help the Red Devils push for a European spot in the Premier League next season. With all things considered, Man United would be wise to go for a player of Martinez's quality and experience this summer. However, he won't be a long-term fix to their goalkeeping concerns, so Amorim might be better off signing a younger option in this transfer window.
